I bought Zebra Danio for my first aquarium and they’ve been active and healthy since arrival. Easy to care for and add a lot of movement to the tank. I feed them flakes and a bit of frozen food each day.

The fish are lively and stay active even in a small tank. They seem to enjoy the varied diet I offer, including frozen brine shrimp and flakes. Good for a beginner setup.

They arrived quickly and are thriving in my 10-gallon tank. I appreciate their hardiness and the fact they don’t need special conditions. Just keep the water clean and they do fine.
