It's this fish in the refugium and don't know how it got there or what it is zoom in to see it I know it's hard to find but it like darts when it swims and is super fast.

Looks like a Molly, usually a freshwater tropical. Some people acclimatise them to salt for pests and algae munching.

Hard to tell from the pics, but possibly Gambusia holbrooki? Looks mosquitofishy and they can definitely survive in salt water.

Guppy, Molly, and Killi all seem reasonable from what I can make out in the pics. This seems like something up @Maritimer s alley.
