Description
Remarks: Celestial pearl danios, also known as CPD or galaxy rasboras, are shy nano fish that prefer to hang out near the bottom of the tank, seeking refuge among plants and driftwood. A dimly lit tank with lots of decorations will help them feel safe and secure. Keep them with similarly sizes tetras, rasboras, barbs, livebearers, and small rainbowfish. They will reproduce frequently if kept with lots of moss for fry to hide in.
The celestial pearl danio is closely related to the emerald dwarf rasbora so the two species should not be kept together. This is because the celestial pearl danio is thought to possibly be endangered due to over-fishing and the two species hybridizing could be harmful to conservation efforts.
