Spotted danio Profile

The Spotted danio is a small, vibrantly colored freshwater fish, known for its distinct spotted pattern overlaying a shimmering body that ranges from gold to a light blue hue. Originating from the fast-flowing streams of South Asia, specifically areas around Myanmar, this species is characterized by its slender body and the unique, eye-catching spots that give it its name. While not as widely recognized as some of its danio counterparts, such as the Zebra danio, the Spotted danio has gained popularity among aquarium enthusiasts for its lively behavior and compatibility with a wide range of tank mates, making it a desirable choice for community aquariums.
