Longfin Neon Yellow Zebra Danio

The Neon Yellow Longfin Zebra Danio (Danio rerio – longfin morph) is a selectively bred variety of the classic Zebra Danio, displaying a bright neon-yellow body with subtle lighter horizontal striping. What makes this morph especially striking are its elegant, elongated fins that trail gracefully behind it as it darts around the aquarium. Hardy, active, and eye-catching, it is both beginner-friendly and unique.

Key Care Points:

• Behavior: Peaceful, energetic, and highly social. Thrives in groups of 6 or more danios, no matter the colour variety. They are known for constantly swimming in the mid-to-upper levels of the tank.

• Tank Requirements: Plenty of open swimming space.

• Diet: Omnivorous; readily eats flakes, small pellets, and enjoys live or frozen treats such as brine shrimp or daphnia.

• Lifespan: Typically lives 3–5 years.

• Max Size: Reaches up to 2 inches (5 cm).

• Growth Rate: Fast—reaches near adult size in about 3–4 months under good care.

The Neon Yellow Longfin Zebra Danio combines the hardiness of the species with a rare, flowing finned beauty, making it a standout in community tanks.
