Todd, I looked through the directory below. My guesstimates are as follows:

01 - ?
02 - Fundulus similis, longnose killifish
03 - Menidia sp.(menidia?), silverside
04 - Cyprinodon variegatus, sheepshead minnow
05 - Fundulus grandis, bull minnow
06 - F. grandis
07 - F. similis juvenile (?)
08 - F. similis juvenile (?)
09 - ? (maybe a butterfish?)

If numbers 07 and 08 aren't juvenile similis, which I think they are because
of the defined but thin banding, they might be confluentus if it ranges that
far south (I'm away from useful references).
