Aquarium Information

  • Compatibility: Excellent with other peaceful, similarly sized community fish such as other danios, rasboras, tetras, and small catfish. Avoid housing with large, aggressive, or fin-nipping species.
  • Special requirements: Requires a well-filtered aquarium with good water flow, as they prefer flowing water in their natural habitat. Benefits from a planted tank with open swimming areas. Best kept in schools of 6 or more individuals to reduce stress and encourage natural schooling behavior.
