I bought a school of six Turquoise Danios and they’ve been very active and colorful since arrival. They thrive in a community tank and don’t fight with other fish. Easy to maintain and keep the tank lively.

The fish arrived quickly and are healthy. They swim in groups and add a lot of movement to the tank. I appreciate the group size being included—makes a big difference in their behavior.

Perfect for a small community tank. They’re peaceful, eat a variety of foods, and stay active throughout the day. The care level is simple, which is great for new aquarium owners.
