Points to keep in mind when mixing swimmers

Regarding mixed swimming, first of all, the Orange Glitter Danio has a docile personality. Therefore, they can be mixed with other breeds. However, the Orange Glitter Danio is a very active breed, so be sure to check that they are eating well when mixing them with slower swimmers.Also, if the breed with which the Orange Glitter Danio is mixed is territorial or aggressive, the red fins may be attacked, resulting in injury or even illness due to stress. If the species you wish to mix with is aggressive, it is recommended that you take measures such as adding water plants or ornaments so that the red-finned fins can escape even if chased.

Points about spawning

Many people who keep Orange Glitter Danio want to breed them. Orange Glitter Danio are easy to keep, but breeding them is a little more difficult. However, it is possible to increase the number of Orange Glitter Danio in a stable manner if you know the procedure well.
The first is to keep individuals that are suitable for breeding.Orange Glitter Danio have a lifespan of about three years, so they are short-lived until they are ready to breed, roughly four to six months after birth. This means that if you want to breed them, it is important to choose relatively young individuals when purchasing them from specialty stores. It is also necessary to distinguish between male and female Orange Glitter Danio. Here, it is important to distinguish between males and females. The male Orange Glitter Danio is slimmer and the female has a fuller belly. However, it is difficult to tell them apart when they are small. As they grow older, the female's belly will gradually become fuller, and you will be able to tell male and female more clearly. If you want to know for sure whether you are looking for a male or a female, we recommend that you ask the staff at a specialty store.
The second thing to do is to prepare a breeding tank.As is common for those who have bred killifish, if the parents (adults) and fry (young) are kept in the same tank after successful spawning and hatching, they may compete for food or the adults may eat the fry, resulting in a decrease in the number of fry. To prevent this from happening, it is recommended that the parents and fry be kept in separate aquariums for easier management. However, unlike killifish, Orange Glitter Danio is a tropical fish, so a heater is recommended during non-summer months. This is also true for the fry, so if you are not sure whether or not to purchase a heater for the aquarium in which you will keep the fry, you may be able to find equipment at specialty stores that will allow you to borrow part of the aquarium in which you are keeping the parents to make space for the fry.

What to look for when keeping Orange Glitter Danio.

The Orange Glitter Danio is recommended for its ease of keeping and mixed swimming. However, in general, the Orange Glitter Danio is not as popular as the Neon Tetra or Guppy. This is due to the swimming ability of the Orange Glitter Danio, which is one of its characteristics. When you see Orange Glitter Danio in specialty stores, they are restless and always moving.This is the result of the evolution of the orange-glitter danios to prevent them from being caught by enemies. However, for those who keep them because they want a relaxing effect, they can become irritable if they are constantly on the move. This has spread through the Internet and word-of-mouth, and has created a bad image in many parts of the world. Therefore, it should be noted that the Orange Glitter Danio may not be suitable for those who want to appreciate tropical fish slowly or those who are not fond of varieties that move around too much. Also, because of its agile movements, it is common to have a hard time catching the Orange Glitter Danio during water changes, etc. If you don't mind, this is a highly recommended tropical fish. If you are interested, I recommend you to take a look at the Orange Glitter Danio at a specialty store.
