The name Danio frankei is considered invalid because the Leopard Danio is merely a variant of the Zebra Danio. See Fishbase.

Im not going to vote because i dont know how correct i am, but wouldnt it cause problems if there are 2 Danio rerio profiles? Anyway, there are going to be profile changes on the Danio Frankei profile that state that Danio frankei is most likely a morph of Danio Rerio. If i were you i would have placed this in Synonyms. If what's on Fishbase is true, then this profile might as well be deleted altogether.

This profile and this one are both redundant. I'll see about removing them altogether. If that happens, the common name info for the zebra danio can just be edited to include leopard danios.

I wouldn't object to the deletion of the Leopard Danio Profile. However, in the mean time, this change will make the profile more correct. The synonyms section is for scientific names that are no longer considered valid.

That too. "Leopard danio" and "Danio var. frankei" were what I was thinking of on the common names.

The last time this was tried, the change did not go through. As it stands, it's impossible for there to be two profiles with the same scientific name.
