The dadio (Neochela dadiburjori) is a species of freshwater ray-finned fish belonging to the family Danionidae, it is the only species in the monospecific genus Neochela.^[2] This species is rarely seen in the aquarist hobby but is not entirely unlike the Danio nigrofasciatus in appearance. Neochela dadiburjori is a gold/silver fish with a blue line, it has two colour morphs, one with a distinct blue line, the other with a dotted blue line. Barbels are not present. 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.^[3] It is necessary to avoid making it coexist with big fish which would only make a mouthful of it (killi: panchax, melanoteania boesmani...).
