I've started to get into Danios recently and am trying to breed them. I got a couple of interesting ones from a local store (long fins), but they don't always have them in stock. I'm starting to branch out.
I'm noticing there's not many other options locally (in spite of the fact we're in one of the largest metropolitan areas of the country), and looking online has been kinda scary. (many of the online stores have terrible reviews online and with the BBB,,, particularly some of the ones from Florida). Does anyone have recommendations for online stores that have a wide variety of danios and can reliably deliver?
I'm also very curious what other hobbyists think about the online image v reality of the fish. It seems like there's very little consensus on what a 'long-fin' danio actually looks like and/or the sellers are not putting that much effort into making sure what they are selling is what's on the site. Many/most of the 'long fins' for sale don't even appear to actually have long fins. I'd love to hear from others.
