I'm starting to stock a 29g tall and I want to start with some Danios (mainly because my son has fallen in love with the geneticly altered 'GloFish' Danio).
Because I know these are schooling fish and are happier and healthier in a schoal I want to get several. Do I need to get all the same type for a schoal? I was hoping for a couple of Glo's, a couple of longfin Zebra's, maybe a couple of longfin Golden. Would these school together or do I need to get more of each type to lower stress to the fish?
As a child I remember my mother had two Zebra's that chased each other all over the tank. I thought it was because they were happy and playful but now I realize it was perhaps stress and agression. I really don't want unhappy fishies
