Hello could I rehome the platys and keep the danios or would I have to rehome the danios?

Loads of great advice from @Rocky998 here already.

Just to add though, I dont think any of those fish are a great choice for such a small tank. Is it a Fluval Edge by any chance? Danios are a really active fish, so while they are only small I'd only ever keep them in something like a 4 foot tank and ideally in a group of about 12. A 3 foot tank might be ok for some Danio species but not Zebras.

You would be better off with a more sedate nano species in there, something like Ember Tetras would be good and some Cherry Shrimp. Failing that a bigger tank for your current fish would be good but you probably need to decide if these are the right fish for you as you may be best to rehome them (to other keepers or a store) and restock your current tank after researching the best species to keep in there.

It is a superfish Qubiq 30 Pro 30 × 30 × 30 cm. I have read zebra danios can be kept in 10 gallons for a school of 6 but this is a school of 4 and 1 pearl, the pearl danio should probably go, so I thought 6.5 would be fine for a school of 4. The tank is an unheated tank so currently it is about 20'C but where I live later on in the year it will probably be about 15'C so I want to stick with cold or temperate fish

Was thinking the same about the danios, they like lots of room to zoom around in, so personally I would rehome those

I don't know if this makes a difference but the zebra danios are about 1.5 inch

Doesn't make a difference I'm afraid

Ok I will see what I can do about rehoming
