They get on well with all other "Danio" species except the giant danio. A less frequently traded geographical variant from the Putao area of northern Myanmar, known as the "northern glowlight danio", sometimes is referred to by a fictitious scientific name

The only "Danio" species to have been consistently called "Danio" were "D. dangila" and "D. feegradei". As "D. dangila" was the first discovered "Danio" (or type) the name "Danio" had to remain with "D. dangila", which is why the vast majority of species were moved to "Devario". Also, the sister group to "Devario" was deemed to be a clade formed by "Inlecypris" and "Chela", and more
