    Hi. What are the temperature and light conditions (outdoor natural vs artificial indoor cycle) for Zebra Danio 3.5cm? If outdoor, whereabouts in Australia are they? If indoor, what light cycle do they live in? Many thanks in advance!

    • Hi, Not a lot oo data on light conditions for Zebra Danio in the wild. However as they live in a number of tropical and sub-tropical regions, unfortunately there is no simple answer.

      In captivity they are not fazed by length of day/night cycle, a typical 8-12 hours of artificial lighting will be fine.
