Here's what I was told: The neon "glo light" danios used to be dyed, and eventually the coloration found its way into their genes. I'm not sure I believe that story. Either way, I don't support breeding or distributing fish that are so unnatural. That's a personal thing for me, I will never buy a blood parrot (I feel so bad for these guys) or a "neon" fish that isn't naturally that way.
