There are many fish with very similar coloration, especially at the size of 1-1.5". It would be beneficial to have side shots of all three fish and a picture of one of their mouths.

It's a , everything else has been said. Keep adding pics of it over time, it might eventually be able to be ID'ed more specifically but not from these shots.
