Devario Aequipinnatus (cropped)
The giant danio (''Devario aequipinnatus'') is a species of freshwater ray-finned fish belonging to the family Danionidae. Originating in Sri Lanka, Nepal, and the west coast of India, this species grows to a maximum length of 4–6 inches (10–15 cm), making it one of the largest of the danionins. It is characterized by a blue and yellow, torpedo-shaped body with gray and clear fins. In the wild, giant danios live in clear streams and rivers among hills at elevations up to 1000 ft (300 m) above sea level. Their native substrate is small gravel. They are native to a tropical climate and prefer water with a 6–8 pH, a water hardness of 5.0–19.0 dGH, and a temperature range of 72–81 °F (22–27 °C). As surface dwellers, their diets consist predominantly of exogenous insects, but is also supplemented by worms and crustaceans. In captivity, giant danios will usually accept most foods. They are a somewhat aggressive fish, and may bully other fish ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Danionidae
The danionins are a group of small, minnow-type fish belonging to the family Danionidae. Species of this group are in the genera clades ''Danio'' and '' Devario'' (which also includes ''Chela'', ''Laubuka'', ''Microdevario'', and ''Microrasbora'' genera), based on the latest phylo-genetic research by Fang et al in 2009. They are primarily native to the fresh waters of South and Southeast Asia, with fewer species in Africa. Many species are brightly coloured and are available as aquarium fish worldwide. Fishes of the ''danio'' clade tend to have horizontal stripes, rows of spots, or vertical bars, and often have long barbels. Species within the ''devario'' clade tend to have vertical or horizontal bars, and short, rudimentary barbels, if present at all. All danionins are egg scatterers, and breed in the rainy season in the wild. They are carnivores, living on insects and small crustaceans.
