The Blue Danio, sometimes referred to as the Turquoise Danio, is a slender-bodied, active, schooling fish ideal for the community aquarium.
Native to streams and pools, the Blue Danio does well with other Brachydanio species and other peaceful fish of similar size. Kept with others in a school, this fish will be very active. The Blue Danio prefers a planted aquarium with plenty of swimming space available.
Brachydanio kerri scatters its eggs in shallow water over a substrate of coarse gravel. After hatching, usually within 36 hours after spawning, the fry should be fed fine pieces of live foods. Sunlight may trigger spawning.
The Blue Danio is an omnivore and should be fed a diet of flake foods with plenty of vegetable matter, as well as freeze-dried bloodworms and tubifex.
