What are the requirements to breed Danios

I have 7 and I believe 2 female to 5 males and I really want to breed them but I don't know the specifics.

I heard they were eager to breed but I think my pH might be to low.. gonna get some shells or something to bump it up a bit. I've been feeding flakes, shrimp pellets and algae wafers.. (well I haven't been feeding them the latter but they eat everything that hit the tank)

I use to have a link specially on how to breed Danios, but I can't seem to find it. Sorry, Apollo. Well, I definitely know. To start the breeding process, you should maintain the temperature around 75 to 80 F. Danios are egglayers so you should be able to see the eggs like tiny bubbles on the gravel or on plant leaves.

Correct me if I'm wrong.

Hello Apollo. A couple of links for you. The 2nd one will be most helpful I believe.
Best of luck for some healthy fry!

Thanks Ken!

Also I have realized that my "grow out" tank won't be growing much since its a 2.5G with what I believe is a HOB rated for 20G I don't know the specifics but it came with my 20G... I think... I am assuming that would be to strong for fry.
