Danio ID, Please help!

[Tetramad]

I bought these Danios as `fire ring Danios` but cant find them in any books or on the net. You cant see it too well in the pic (never keep still!!) bit it has a red ring around its eye.

Thanks, Mark.

looks like the blue danios I had. so thats what Id say.

 

[The-Wolf]

they are not blue danios

you have two choices (given the flash it's hard to see)
danio burma sp or danio kyathit (colour variation 1)
I'm leaning towards danio burma sp.

I reckon it is Danio kyathit

Burma sp has spotted fins and is little bigger than a neon tetra

 

[Tetramad]

it also has a red stripe on the anal fin that you can`t see in the photo.

In that case it is definitely kyathit - the danio sp burma has a spotted anal fin. THe males have a red hue when in top condition but no stripe
