Gold Zebra Danios are possibly the most widely purchased beginner fish in the hobby. These little fish were once upon a time used as a means to cycle aquariums and as lab fish and are still widely regarded as practically bomb proof. They are a shoaling species that should be kept in groups of 6 or more specimens and can be kept with most other species, though long finned fish should be avoided as the Danios are known for nipping. They will adapt to a wide range of conditions and prefer cooler tanks, making them an ideal candidate for temperate set ups. The aquarium should be planted with an open swimming space available. A tight fitting lid is essential as Zebra Danios are accomplished jumpers.
The Gold Zebra Danio is a very active species that's always zooming around in the tank. They can help shy fish to feel more encouraged to come out of hiding, but any species that's easily spooked should be avoided as the danios are very boisterous.
Food can be offered in the form of micro pellets and fresh or frozen fish foods.
