Danio Friends

[MRshouty]

I've got 3 white clouds 1 is gold and 1 is young so they don't really school with them. What kind of danio will school with them, the people at my LFS said they probably would if they looked somewhat alike. Because I don't want to overcroud my tank I'm only gonna get one more danio, but if that one doesn't school with the white clouds it will be sad and alone.

My LFS has some leopard danios but they're kind of big compared to my white clouds.

I don't think they have zebra danios.

They do have glowlite and longfin blues though.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

The whole schooling thing is a defense mechanisum that happens when fish are frightened. wcm will group together wether they are normal or golden or a mixture.
I have 8 wcms and 6 lamp eye panchax the stay together because they are similar in size.
When my wcm's were with all my danios they tended to stay with the glowlight as they are similar in size as well.

So to sum up I think that you should get some glowlight danio to go with your wcms glowlights min temp can be 22c/71f which is near the mid to higher end of the scale for wcm's.
