If they're about 1 1/2 -2 inches, they appear to be white clouds: http://www.elmersaquarium.com/10whiteclouds.htm
ADDITION: After looking at your photo again, it appears there's too much red on the fins. What's the size of these fish?
It also has some of the characteristics of a cherry barb: http://www.myfishtank.net/images/fish/cherrybarb.jpg
ADDITION 2: I'll agree with the shape of a denison barb: http://www.fishprofiles.com/files/profiles/416.htm but the colors are off - these are also fairly large and expensive fish (5-6" as adults, $20-40 each depending on the size in my area). It's not exactly the color of a bloodfin either.

Your fish appear to be a leptobarbus or a rabora species It is not a common fish in the hobby.If you go to fishbase.org and do a search under these genuses you may find the exact species name and a picture that matches your fish In the last couple of years many new species of these type fish have started to be imported out of Asia >I would guess your fish was wild collected rather than raised by a fish farm .

The first one has the body shape of a denison barb, but has the coloring of a bloodfin tetra. Maybe its a mix?
Where did you get them from?

the smaller ones look like they could possibly be a glow light tetra
