Default Small North American Cold-water Fish

Hi..

I've heard about pretty North American minnows of 3-4"
maximum. Unfortunately I don't know their colloquial or
scientific names.

In a telephone call a friend told me about several other
pretty small North American Cold-water Fish.

Would like learn more about them.

Thanks in advance.

====================
One showed up in my tank of koi fry. It's about 4" long and very dark
colored and active. When I sold the fingerlings this past Monday I left it
there. I'll probably take it to the lake as soon as I have some bullfrogs
to relocate. Or maybe I'll leave it for mosquito control. It has thrived
in our hard alkaline water and inexpensive fish food.
