The zebra danios are not dyed. The eggs have been "spliced"? with anemone dna. That is what produced those colors. I know it sounds crazy and I doubted it when I first heard it but do a Google search on glo fish and you'll see what I'm talking about.ThePBM;1020021; said:

awesome. guess it's not that hard to believe. i've taken care of jellyfish-gene-spliced-mice at bishop museum. the mice were from the University of Hawaii. they took the dna responsible for making a glowing protein in jellyfish, gave it to some bacteria, let them make copies of it, and then gave it to some mice. the mice would glow under blacklight (just the exposed skin parts, not the fur, so tail, paws, nose, ears would glow green)
so anemone to fish genetics seems simpler than that. i'll see if i can find any red ones. had no idea red ones were available.

man, a Nothobranchius Korthausae in red would be visually ideal, if only they weren't most likely to kill the shrimp.
cherry barbs or red phantoms- phantoms are serpae looking but i find them to be brighter and more striking
I'm not a fan of the black marking behind the gill cover.
I may just get a couple of guppies. These look pretty nice.

That's an ideal cherry barb. It's just that I've been seeing pictures of cherry barbs that have no red at all 
My current ones to choose from are the cherry barbs or all-red guppies. I may go with red zebra danios, but if i remember correctly they look more pink than red.
