Hello guys;
It is with great sadness that I have been reporting the death of one of my zebra-breeding females :cry: . I have a 200 liters aquarium with 19 wild zebras, and 25 babies F1 measuring between 2 and 3 inches (6 months old). This tank has 16 caves, all always occupied by adults. I also have ...

Again, thank you, john.

In fact, the flow is high enough to hinder the feeding babys, so I thought to disconnect the pump for some minutes in time to feed them. My biggest concern is whether this heavy flow can damage the babys causing deformities (bent spine, bloated belly) or even hurting their ...

Does it mean that there are two females spawning??

If i have two caves with two males taking care off the eggs, would be possible that one of the males to destroy the eggs of the other cave ??

Thanks.

Luciano

Thanks john;
But how many times a day should I feed them? Would i need to siphon off the bottom every time I feed them?
And one more question: Do you think a flow of 500 liters / hour to an aquarium of 30 liters is too intense for the babys?

Thank you very much!!

Luciano

Hello guys:

I know that if I look at in this forum , somewhere I would find the answer. However, due to the fact that I have been too busy this week and the babys are coming, I need your help quickly.

How do I feed the babys? I think that the yolk sac should be exhausted in about four or five days ...

Hi guys...

what is the minimum time interval that a female zebra could spawn? (Time between two spawnings).
I ask this because I have a tank with 19 zebras and there are two caves with eggs . I do not know if the eggs are only a female or if they are from different females.

Thanks.
Luciano

Thanks TTA / Chris and Grubby.

I decided that I will put the zebs in two tanks...this way, I put a cave for each zebra and still have enough space for them hiding and swim too.

i will be in doubt to choose which zebs go in each tank... :? , mainly because I think I have a lot more males than ...

Hi guys....
What is the optimal number of caves to 19 zebs in a tank?

A tank with 100 x 45 x 45 cm would behave the 19 zebs ?
or it would be best to select the 19 zebs in two tanks?

Thanks

Luciano

I usually clean my equipment to "bleach" ... that is sodium hypochlorite (NaClO). After rinsing enough, soak in a solution with desclorificantes for a few hours.

Hi Jo's, Hi Stevie.

Thanks for the guesses. I agree with you.
I have another fourteen L046, but unfortunately I think that there are only two females in this group.

I'm scheduling to "rebuild" my tanks, and when I do that I might shoot the other zebs and try to evaluate their genders.

Bye
Luciano

Hi guys;
What do you think about the sex of this zebs?





Thanks

Luciano

Hello everyone;

I decided to isolate the small zebra in an aquarium hospital. I was really with fear of a secondary infection and her to commit the whole tank.

I am treating them with castanheira (Terminalia capatta - following suggestion of Jo's Zebs) leaves, applying Wound ease of Mydor ...

Hello darry, hello dconnors:

Thank very much for the your opinions..
I really think that the zeb it's a male... I agree that the "lesion" have been consequence/resultant of fighting because really there are few caves in this thank.
In the last week, I did change the zebs of the tank and this moment ...
