*Edit* Okay, possibly only one way to pronounce...apparently the AHD symbols for the ah and ay sounds are the same?

Thanks for that! I didn't want to get up to the fish store and ask for a fish that doesn't exist! LOL! I want to get a few to go in my 10 gallon, but I don't have the money right now

I pronounce it dan-ee-o

I've always said dan-e-o as the word danio is from the India "Dhani" which means "spawn" in Bengali and "wealthy" in Hindi/Sanskrit
