My New Favourite Shoal!

I bought 7 of these little fellas, Burmese Spotted Danio to be precise, in January and they've grown into healthy and stunning fish. I want to get a few more to strengthen my shoal however I can't find them anywhere in my area! Luckily they've been showing some mating behaviour so hopefully I won't need to rely on the LFS for increasing my stock!
 
This is one of my females, she's getting plumper (hopefully with eggs)

 
 
I really love the energy this species has and their love for playing in the filter current!
 

 
I was wondering if anyone else experience keeping this species and could help me with feeding? They love flakes so feeding them isn't an issue, however, when I try to enrich their diet with blood worms etc they aren't interested! Anybody know of any live/frozen foods they'll appreciate?

I haven't kept these before, in fact I've never seen these before! But they're gorgeous fish, really nice markings.

Beautiful, never seen them before either, have you tried live/frozen brine shrimp? daphnia is also good 

New to me too.... nice small shoaling fish, good luck with breeding them.
 
Microworms!

I second the microworms. All of mine go mad for them. They usually get a mixture of various dried food and frozen stuff. Microworms are the first live food I've had and I can see a difference in their colours since starting them.

I've never heard of microworms! Where do you get yours from?

You have to grow your own!
 
Search youtube for tutorials and ebay for a starter culture... they're very cheap/easy to grow/cultivate.

Was not expecting that - wow! I shall have to ask my mum.. she rules my fish keeping with an iron rod 

Your picture looks like what others are calling a Gold ring Danio or Danio Tinwini.  If I recall correctly it was also discovered about the same time as the Celestial Pearl Danio.  I haven't seen either of these in the local fish stores but they are high on my list of future purchases.  Do they get allong well with your Neon tetras?
