The dadio (Laubuka dadiburjori) is a cyprinid fish, is rarely seen in the aquarist hobby but is not entirely unlike the Danio nigrofasciatus in appearance.

Like most danionins, this fish has a tendency to jump.

A tight fitting lid with no gaps is recommended.

Endemic in India, where both colour morphs co-exist, the fish is found from Tamil Nadu to Goa.

[2] It is necessary to avoid making it coexist with big fish which would only make a mouthful of it (killi: panchax, melanoteania boesmani...).
