Crikey :blink: you must love Danios. Do you have any other fish ??
 
Do you not get dizzy watching them hurtle round the tanks?Five minutes watching my giants/pearls/leopards and zebras wears me out :eek:
 
Nice collection Paul.
Danio choprai - Glowlight Danio - (4 cm/ 1.25 in)

misspelt should be choprae :p

where did you get the sizes and common name for
feegradei and meghalayensis?
and where did you get the sizes for
TW02, TW03?

Also I'd like to point out that I had several Pearls at 8cm, of course it is entirely
possible they had another danios genes so they could've been overgrown due to that.

Actually.. Dr Chorpa who they are named after was a man. Therefore they are correctly Choprai, 'e' denotes naming after a lady hence Devario fangfangae :hyper:

Sizes - observation in my 1mx.5mx.5m tank

Common names

Meghalaya - cant remember but its derived from where it comes from. They are usually called Megs afaik

Rocket - I made that one up owing to their habit of veritcally jumping like a rocket about a foot above the water line. :p
