    Silversides are freshwater fish which are sometimes feed as live food to carnivorous fish &/or coral.

    Well, silverside refers to a family that includes rainbowfishes.

    The ones fed to corals and SW fish are usually SW varieties, though. It's a big group, like gobies, in that there's a large range of habitats within the family.
