5 danios free to whomever can collect from Charing near Ashford. 3 leopard 2 zebra.
These are housed in a 240 litre community aquarium, hard Kent water. They were the first fish in the tank, 7 months ago.
Reason for selling: I later learnt through these boards that they are cooler-water fish - they're housed with tropical tankmates at 25 degrees (cardinals, harlequins, dwarf gouramis, bn's, dwarf chain loaches). Originally there were 7 but I lost 2 a few months ago. 5 is not a good shoal size for these fish, but I don't want to add more because I know the temperature is not ideal for them.
The tank is well stocked, but the fish are healthy and the aquarium is well maintained (2 external filter pumps running with combined flow 2000 litres/ hours, 50% weekly water change)
