The best way to breed egglayers is to put the parents in a seperate breeding tank with lots of plants and things and a sponge filter (babies can't get sucked into that). After you see the parents spawn, remove them, and the eggs should hatch with a couple of days and you'll have some free-swimming fry.

Danios can be horrible egg eaters.  Try putting them in a separate tank with marbles on the bottom.  That way the eggs fall inbetween them where their parents can't get to them.  Good luck!
