These danios are very active and colorful. I kept them in a 5-gallon tank with other small fish, and they adapted well. The water temperature stayed stable, and they stayed healthy for over six months.

Small and lively, they add a nice touch to my nano tank. I noticed they stay near the surface and prefer calm areas. Good choice for beginners with small community setups.

The fish arrived healthy and were already active. I mixed them with Celestial Pearl Danios, and they coexist peacefully. Easy to care for with minimal water changes.
