Re: any pics of what a pregnant female zebra looks like?

For me that going to be a tall order. I spent hours trying to take pics with my older dig cam and I am probably one of the worst camera operators around. It is also complicated by the fact that I was so worried I might end up killing my zebs that I went way over size and put my zebs in a 90 gallon t...

Re: any pics of what a pregnant female zebra looks like?

Hi Fern

Good luck! I was going to try RO but my system does not have enough capacity for what i need so guess i'll just be waiting for spring storms now.

If you get some babies you should post some pics

Re: any pics of what a pregnant female zebra looks like?

Wow thats a long time. I have only had my guys for over a month, guess i better get used to waiting. Out here we are just getting out of our freeze with all our snow melting and we will not have any rain storms for another month or two so i won't be able to rely on a pressure change so i'll have to ...

Re: any pics of what a pregnant female zebra looks like?

Thats funny i just put in a RO unit also, but i was worried about changing water parameters now if a female is by chance pregnant. My water here is a ph of 7.6 and i was a little worried doing this might be a little risky at this stage. What kind of ph do you have?

Re: any pics of what a pregnant female zebra looks like?

Hi guys, thank you for the input and the picture. I can totally understand the part of not wanting to stress the zebs out. I just wanted to have a bit more of a look see as to what i may or may not have coming so i could hopefully prepare. I know its rare just to have them breed and hard to get pics...

Re: Are tetras and bristlenose stressful on zebras?

Well i guess its the better safe then sorry thing here. I am going to catch the tetra and the bristlenoses and give the zebras the tank to themselves. Its too bad though with the upper end of the tank having soo much room, but i guess the plants will soon fill that anyway.

Thanks for the advice

Are tetras and bristlenose stressful on zebras?

Hi just wondering what opinions were on having bristlenose(2) and blue tetra(1) mixed in on my colony of zebras? I have a 90 gal tank which is a lot of room for the zebras but the blue tetra does zip through the current alot and goes right down to the sand to pick up food. The bristlenose are in the...

I had seen pics of these guys before but only recently had access to them in my area. Now that i have them i am hooked and hope i can give my zebras a long ...
