Native to the Rahkine Yoma Mountains in western Mayanmar, the Yoma Danio is found only in small forest streams. These fish vary in coloration but most specimens exhibit a reflective silver body with one or more pigment stripes on the caudal fin and a central stripe on the anal fin. Some Yoma Danios also have white or silver spot-like markings on their flanks and bodies.
Yoma Danios are incredibly active and require at least a twenty gallon tank in order to provide adequate open space for swimming. These fish are typically not aggressive but they may upset slow-moving fish with their constant activity. Yoma Danios are shoaling rather than schooling fish and they are best kept in groups of ten or more in densely planted tanks with dark substrate and a tight-fitting lid. These Danios will also enjoy highly-oxygenated water with a high degree of flow.
In the wild, Yoma Danios typically subsist on insects and insect larvae. In the home aquarium, however, these fish are likely to accept a variety of foods. A staple diet for Yoma Danios should consist of high-quality dried flakes or pellets supplemented with small live and frozen foods such as brine shrimp, bloodworms and Daphnia.
These fish are egg scatterers and they are most likely to spawn in mature, densely-planted aquariums. The water in the tank should be kept at a neutral pH and at temperature around 75 to 80 degrees Fahrenheit. Because Yoma Danios do not care for their young at all following spawning, adults should be removed from the tank so they do not eat their own eggs. The eggs typically hatch after 3 to 7 days and the fry may become free swimming after another 24 to 48 hours.
