Pretty much explains itself really. If you have questions about tank set-ups, tank furniture, (caves etc) chuck them in here!

As Andrew says they prefer cooler tank temps, theyare also unlikely to tolerate the high flowrates in a zebra tank. You may have a job trying to find them now as they are in short supply due to over fishing.

Celestial Pearl Danios are pretty but like the others have stated the temp is a problem along with most other tankmates.
The status of Celestials supposedly is all over exaggerated according to the FiSH magazine and they are actually collected in several pools of water instead of the one "mystical" location and they are also being captive bred.

Bonsai, would that be the shrimp section? Can't seem to find it.
