Ideal: 72-79°F (22-26°C)
The Celestial Pearl Danio is a tropical species. Aim for the middle of its range, around 76°F, and keep it steady — sudden swings stress fish more than a stable temperature.
You will need a heater to hold 72°F and up in most rooms — use roughly 3-5 watts per gallon plus a separate thermometer.
