This listing is for a group of 6 Celestial Pearl Danios (Danio margaritatus, 1 cm) — the same fish as our single Celestial Pearl Danio listing, supplied together as a ready-made shoal.
Celestial Pearl Danios are peaceful nano shoalers; a group of 6 gives them the confidence to stay out in the open and display among fine-leaved plants.
Celestial Pearl Danio (Danio margaritatus) is the small spotted fish many aquarists still know as Galaxy Rasbora. It suits mature planted aquariums where a group can move through moss, stems and open pockets without being pushed around by larger fish.
| Scientific name | Danio margaritatus |
|---|---|
| Adult size | 2-2.5 cm |
| Minimum aquarium | 45 litres or larger |
| Temperature | 20-24 C |
| pH | 6.5-7.5 |
| Temperament | Peaceful but shy nano shoaler that needs plants and a group |
| Diet | Micro omnivore; fine flakes, micro pellets, small frozen foods, daphnia and baby brine shrimp |
Use a planted aquarium with gentle flow, fine cover and stable water. The fish is peaceful but shy, so it shows best in a group of 8 or more with other small calm species.
Galaxy Rasbora remains a familiar hobby name, but the public care facts here are standardised to Danio margaritatus.
Feed tiny foods: fine flakes, micro pellets, daphnia, cyclops and baby brine shrimp. They have small mouths, so crush larger foods and avoid fast tank mates that take everything first.
