Good choice - Danios are all too often put in tanks which are too small for their active nature but your tank should give them plenty of room to, erm, stretch their legs.  ;D

oh they certainly stretch there legs they speed round like its a race track.is quite funny cus my kissing gourmai like to curl up in the evening and chill out when all of a sudden a danio goes flying by at lighting speed and you can see the look on there faces is something like - Those young hooligans  :rotfl:

Looking really good that pal! Yeah my danios have a habit of encouraging my chain loaches in to a game of race around the tank :fishy1:
