Giant Danio The Giant Danio (Devario aequipinnatus) is a very active, colorful species that is native to India, Nepal, and Indochina. At an adult size of around 7-8 cm, this schooling fish is an excellent addition to the well-decorated community aquarium and a true giant species for a danio. It is tolerant of a wide variety of water parameters. Like many typical danios, the Giant Danio is very active and should be kept in schools of at least 6-10 specimens, although even larger schools are more optimal. This fish is very hardy and undemanding in a well-maintained aquarium, but it needs a fair amount of space due to its active and somewhat nervous nature. Stress and nervousness are minimal when this fish is kept in a larger school. The Giant Danio will thrive in a planted aquarium with a good amount of decor such as rockwork and driftwood and its color will be most vibrant over dark substrate. It will not bother ornamental plants. This fish is a prodigious swimmer and jumper, so a tight-fitting lid or significantly lowered waterline is necessary to prevent startled or excited specimens from jumping out of the aquarium.
