I haven't raised zebra fry (yet) so I can't contribute data, but I am curious to hear what people are experiencing. It would be interesting to hear as well what percentage mortality is being seen at various stages of development and what strategies are being used to minimize losses.

Andrew, what ...

Congratulations on your success. It sounds like you’ve done a lot to contribute to the viability of zebras as a collected fish. I don’t think that needs to be at odds with collecting back some/ all of your investment or even making some profit. Certainly if you go to auction you will lose control ...

Thanks again for the info. I went with AquaBotanic and the plants arrived in good condition. The potted Annubias nana narrow leaf were in awesome shape (densely foliaged) and almost immediately started blooming in my tank!

Hello!

Thanks for the welcome all! The forum is a wealth of information and inspiration as I build out my tank. I look forward to contributing back once I get into the swing of things again. CD

Hello! I'm just getting back into things again after a long layoff. I use to have a nice little group of Zebras, but they went with my girlfriend in the splitup. Given how difficult they are to get now, I'm wishing the Zebras has decided to split up as well! It's great to see the community that's ...
