I'm sorry if i offended you. I am new to the site.
You are right, I was calling it like that due to its colors but I had seen it was actually called different; that is why I also mentioned the other name (apart from thinking about the comment too). But it is true, it may mix things up.
Thank you very much for the correction!! =)
Thank you so much Patty, If you don't mind me correcting. But a zebrafish (Danio rerio) is actually a fresh water fish belonging to the minnow family (Cyprinidae) of the order Cypriniformes. Native to the Himalayan region.
Magnificent zebra fish; it might have been an interesting adaptation according to Darwin regarding its name. Nice picture too! =)
