Your fish should be just fine and suffer no long term ill effect from his little adventure. Your mix of fish should be ok for now, but most fish sold under the common names that include the word shark are actually catfish that grow rather large and will eventually consider the other fish as food. It would probably be a good idea to remove the shark and replace it with a few more neons. They prefer to live in a group or 6 or more anyway.

The new swordtail might be ok, he might not.
Those fish will live together in peace for awhile...
Until the Shark gets huge... Then he will consider the other fish as food.
