Can anyone give me some information on this fish. In particular, I'm wondering if there is some connection with the Hikari fish food company. I tried doing a search on Google but came up empty handed. confused.gif

They seem to have a nice iridescent quality that I like to see.

I checked out your website during my search but it gave no information on the origin of "Hikari". no.gif

Oh, I forgot to update that page blushing.gif
Danio Hikari are from Myanmar, formerly Burma.

Edit
Page is now updated thumbs-up.gif

Not sure but Hikari means "light" in japanese (as in "Let there be light") and there is a japanese city called hikari (probably what the food is named after)

I suspect that it means much the same in burmese and it is a common forename there (including a former kings son)
