Additional information (Wiki): The care of members of the genus Danio are rather similar and easily generalized. They are easy to keep.


All of these fish are primarily surface feeders. They are omnivorous in the aquarium and will accept a wide variety of foods, though flake food is appropriate. Living in aquaria, live/frozen flaked foods are suitable, especially brine shrimp and sinking tablets. Danios are voracious eaters; take care so that timid feeders do not starve in community tanks with danios. When conditioning Danios for breeding, it's advisable to feed them plenty of fresh foods.


Although boisterous and liable to chase each other and other fish, they are good community fish and will not generally attack each other or other fish, although they occasionally nip fins, more by accident than design and will, like most fish, eat eggs and any fish small enough to fit into their mouths.
