Diet:

Danio fish eat all kinds of live and frozen foods and also vegetables. Optimal feeding method for danio fish is feeding them small portions a few times in a day which they are able to consume within 3 minutes. Do not overfeed or leave food leftover in the tank, as it causes ammonia and nitrite and becomes toxic.
