Leopard Danio - Danio frankei 2cm

from £2.10

The Leopard Danio, scientifically known as Danio frankei, is a striking and active freshwater fish that can add a dynamic element to your aquarium. Named for their distinctive leopard-like spots, these fish are a beautiful addition to any community tank. Leopard Danios are native to the streams and rivers of Myanmar, where they thrive in clear, well-oxygenated waters. They are highly social and do best in groups, as they are schooling fish by nature. This behavior not only enhances their well-being but also adds to the visual appeal of the tank.

Leopard Danios are relatively easy to care for and can adapt to a range of water conditions, but they do require a well-maintained and clean environment. They prefer a tank with a gentle current, plenty of open swimming space, and some areas with dense vegetation for cover. These fish are omnivorous and will readily accept a variety of foods, including high-quality flake and pellet foods, as well as live and frozen options like brine shrimp and bloodworms.

Their peaceful nature makes them compatible with a wide range of community fish, and they are particularly well-suited to tanks with other small, active species. Leopard Danios are also known for their hardiness and can be a great choice for both beginner and experienced aquarists. Their vibrant colors and active swimming patterns make them a delightful addition to any freshwater aquarium, bringing both beauty and energy to your aquatic environment.
