Yellow Fish?

[tigerstar]

Is my Zebra Danio suposta be yellowish?

 

[-germ-]

Yeah... i think zebra danios are normally considered to be silver-yellow and blue....
How yellow is the yellow?
<-- smiley yellow?

 

[tigerstar]

Yellow enough that I am concerned. No not as yellow as the smiley, but close. He has been acting weird today as well, chasing other fish around when he usually doesn't.

Erm i'm stuck then, i'd try PMing the-wolf tomorrow and see if he has any thoughts....
Unless its velvet? link...
Does the fish look kind of dull, has it been flashing/flicking at all?

What first came to my mind was breeding, z.danios chase each other when breeding but i didn't think there was a strong colour change involved (if at all).

Zebra Danio should look like this regularly.....

Does it? If not then does it seem like there is a gold shimmer on the danio?

sexually mature ZDs will look yellow in certain light
it is natural and nothing to worry about

Thanks all! This makes me feel better.
