Blue Danio Danio kerri? Blue danio?

[nguyendetecting]

I think these are blue danios I've had them for a little while, awesome looking fish and super active always chasing everything. But was wondering if I could get a positive id and is someone had some personal experience with that that they could share that would be awesome too.

Thanks in advance

They are Pearl Danios (Brachydanio albolineatus).

Very hardy fish, grows a little larger then zebras danios.

Surface fish, needs room to zoom around. Eats flakes, and live food. 70-80 degress is best. Generally very peaceful.

Yes, def. pearls, I have them too and they are very hardy and active fish. also a bit larger than other danios so they are less likely to get eaten.
I also have blues, but they are different.

Just an update, the 3 are doing awesome got a male and female for sure, not sure about the 3rd never shows colors. The pair has been chasing and showing spawning behavoir, but nothing has come from it so far.

Just wanted to share

treat them like zebra danios and you'll be fine

Yes, they prefer to school with their own kind so if you get a couple more that would be best. You can put them in a shallow tank with marbles and place next to a window. in the morning when the sun comes up they might spawn and then remove them immediately after.
