Aquascaping:

Shrimp Compatible:

Longfin Golden Zebra Danios are generally peaceful and can coexist with larger shrimp species. However, they might prey on shrimp fry and smaller shrimp. Providing ample hiding spots with plants and decorations can help maintain a harmonious tank environment.

Longfin Golden Zebra Danios are omnivorous and will thrive on a varied diet. High-quality flake food, micro pellets, and occasional treats of frozen or live foods such as brine shrimp and daphnia will keep them healthy and vibrant. A varied diet ensures they receive all necessary nutrients for optimal health and coloration.

Botanicals:

Incorporating botanicals such as Indian Almond Leaves, Catappa Bark, and Alder Cones can enrich the aquarium environment for Longfin Golden Zebra Danios.

Shipping Schedule for this service

UPS 1 Day: Monday through Thursday
 

Current Handling Time:

1-9 business days

Here at Aquatic Arts, we consider the welfare of the live animals we are shipping to be of the foremost importance. This process is much more involved than simply creating a shipping label and affixing it to a box. Depending on the order, it takes from 4 to 7 people to complete this process properly. We check the weather conditions here where they fly out of the Indianapolis UPS facility and the destination for each shipment. We start early each morning and go through a multi-step process to have the day's shipments prepared in time for the UPS pickup. The volume of orders in our system also affects the processing time. Therefore our stated handling time is 1-9 business days. 

Shipping Rate

Pricing is by size of package needed to fill entire order and distance it must travel. It will be calculated at checkout.
