Tropical Fish Tank and Aquarium Information

Go Back   Fish Lore Tropical Fish and Aquarium Forum > Freshwater Aquarium Fish Forum > Freshwater Beginners

Freshwater Beginners A place where freshwater aquarium fish beginners can go to post their questions and hopefully get responses from those more experienced. Also check out the Freshwater Fish Beginner's Guide and Aquarium Setup Guides. Setting up a new freshwater aquarium can be a rather large project and you want to make sure you do it right the first time. If you need help with your fish tank please don't be afraid to ask questions. That's what this fish forum is all about!

On that pic they look identical to the Glowlight Danio's that I have in my tank. Are they a pinky orangey colour?

I have also seen them called Shiner Danio.

they look kind of like glolight danios to me, here's a picture for comparison since yours is a little dark to be able to tell (if you click on the picture it's a lot bigger)

Yes, lordingsy, they are pinky orangey in colour. They swim mostly at the top, and the've got very fine almost transparent fins. But its not a glow light danio it seems. Here's another pic.
