Rig / Animate 3d fish models with simple motion - oDesk - United States

I have a dozen 3d fish models in MAYA which already have textures (attached file below) I just need to rig and animate them so they can sway/bend/flap their fins.

I have uploaded a youtube clip of the sort of motion I am looking for (roughly) you can find it here:

I am moving the fish around inside a virtual aquarium using Python code, so I don't want you to change their position in the maya animation (at least not drastically) I just want you to make them gently sway/flap in place, like in the youtube clip. The motion needs to be believable for a real fish.
