Flow match
Celestial Pearl Danio: Low
Harlequin rasbora: Low
Flow preferences do not conflict directly (no low-vs-high clash).
Behavioural Factors
Predation risk (size ratio)
Adult size ratio: 2.38x
Size gap is between 2.0x and 3.0x, so monitor for dominance and mouth-fit risk.
Behaviour risk
- - Both species are generally peaceful; behaviour conflict risk is low.
