Re: Dither fish

I have heard danios seem to be one of the fish of choice or you might you some of the more active tetras. But as I don't have any hider fish in my tanks couldn't tell you from personal experience if they serve the purpose well or not.

Re: Dither fish

What are you trying to bring out of hiding?

I have found, the more places you give your fish to hide, the more they come out.

Re: Dither fish

I know from experience, my harlequins are what they call dither. And the same with my lemon tetras.

Re: Dither fish

Zebra danios are very good dither fishes. They help making even the shyest fishes come out into the open.
