Sexing Females are more round
Breeding Raise the temperature and put a female with 2 males in a separate tank with fine leaved plants. Remove parents after spawning.
Comments Leopard danios like all danios are fast boisterous swimmers shoaling in the upper region of the tank. They can also be inclined to nip fins of slow long finned fish but otherwise a great community fish for beginners. And don't forget to purchase them in groups of 6 or more. These danios will also shoal with zebra danios (Danio rerio)
