Fish
Yesterday I bought 3 little fish and I did know what they were called but I’ve forgotten now so I can’t look on the internet for help for them.
Yesterday I bought 3 little fish and I did know what they were called but I’ve forgotten now so I can’t look on the internet for help for them.
They’re about 1 and a half inches long and they’re grey with black/navy stripes running down all their bodies right to the end of their tail fins. They’re not fancy with great ffrilly tails, just ordinary fishy shapes. There’s a leopard variety of their species with dots instead of stripes. Anyone got any ideas?

I think the fish you describe are danio:
They are many species of danio such as;
zebra danio need temperature 18-25C (64-77F);pH 6.5-7.5;dH to 12 and average size 6cm (2 1/4 in).
and for pearl danio need temperature 21-25C (70-77F);pH 6.5-7.0;dH to 12 and average size 6cm (2 1/4 in).
and for leopard danio need need temperature 22-24C (72-75F);pH 6.0-6.5;dH not to sure and average size almost 6cm (2 1/2 in).
They just have slightly different in average size and water environment.
As I know there are also albino,long-finned, and veil-tailed strains have also been developed.
Hope my information have solve your curiosity.
