So Paul Loiselle was our speaker at our fish meeting last Saturday. He presented on Danios and Rasboras, and said he got in to them because they make great dithers for apistos, even better then pencil fish (which he says will hunt apisto fry). His rationale:
(1) They stay in the top third of the tank,
(2) Don't hunt/eat apisto fry
(3) Cheap
(4; the one I think is the most interesting reason) Well fed danios/rasboras will constantly scatter eggs, which are great food to condition breeding apistos.
Anyone have a recommendation on a specific danio/rasboras. Most of the threads I've seen focus on pencils as dithers.
