The Brachydanio Rerio - Long-Fin Zebra Danio (Extra Large) is a spectacular centerpiece for the modern community aquarium, known for its brilliant coloration and sophisticated social behavior. Characterized by a sleek, torpedo-shaped body with horizontal blue-purple stripes and dramatically elongated, flowing fins, this Extra Large variant is a masterclass in aquatic aesthetics. In the "Answering Machine" era of freshwater husbandry, the Long-Fin Zebra Danio is highly prized for its incredible hardiness, peaceful temperament, and its ability to cohabit beautifully with nearly any other peaceful community resident.
Unlike the standard short-fin variety, these Extra Large specimens provide a heightened visual impact as their fins trail elegantly through the water. They are exceptionally active swimmers that occupy the upper and middle levels of the water column, providing a constant display of color and high-energy movement.
Note: Images shown are stock images and not the actual fish you will receive.
Care Level: Easy
Temperament: Peaceful
Variant Size: Extra Large
Minimum Tank Size: 10 Gallons
Diet: Omnivore
Reef Compatible: N/A (Freshwater)
Max Size: 2 Inches (plus fin length)
Water Conditions: 64 to 77°F, dKH 5 to 12, pH 6.5 to 7.5
The Extra Large Long-Fin Zebra Danio is an ideal candidate for a community planted tank. While they are highly adaptable to various water parameters, they thrive in systems with plenty of open swimming space to accommodate their active nature. They are high-metabolism fish and should be fed a varied diet of high-quality flakes, micro-pellets, and frozen meaty foods—such as daphnia and vitamin-enriched brine shrimp—at least twice daily. Because they are schooling fish, keeping them in groups of six or more is mandatory to ensure they feel secure and display their best social behaviors.
We’ve dialed in the logistics for national Overnight Delivery to ensure your livestock arrives in peak condition. Every order is packed using professional-grade insulation and climate-contingent heat or ice packs, designed to maintain stable temperatures throughout the journey. We handle the technical side of the move so you can focus on the acclimation. Our protocol is built on getting these fish from the facility to your tank with zero compromise on health or vitality.
