Zebra Danio talk

[Honey Fish]

My guppie care forum was getting turned into zebra danio forum so this is the forum to talk about anything about zebra danios. Questions, sharing, etc

Yea just pls do not keep 8 danios in a 10 gallon like I did. I don't know what happened but they looked depressed and eventually all of them had holes on the side of their body where pus was seeping out.
But if you have 25+ gallon tank, those are some handsome aquatic chaps to get. Absolutely amazing if you have the correct conditions.

Anyways, great tank so farmore plants would be beneficial but that is a good tank size.

Did someone say Zebra Danios ? The much maligned , little understood and often overlooked Brachydanio rerio Zebra Danio ? Is that the fish I heard mentioned ? That beautiful silver and metallic blue little fish with the little barbel whiskers ? I love Zebes ! They are easy to breed but the fry are really small and require you to learn small live food culturing. Infusoria , micro worms , vinegar eels , paramecium , etc. They are great in unheated tanks and thrive at room temperature. What's not to like about the Zebra Danio ?

Well… the snails laid eggs… and I put them into a new 20 gal brackish tank in hopes that they survive so I need baby Bertie snail care guide now

So I finally have the 20 gal long danio tank fully cycled! I have one question tho, how many guppies could I put in there with the 10 danios and 2 nerites? my original plan was the 10 danios, 2 nerites, and 6 guppies, but let me know what you think, in terms of stocking.
