Re: Hi everyone! Questions!

Cracks and crevices are where zebras like to be. Pool filters sand is good that is what I use. Lots of filtration and aeration.

Once you get them just watch them and they will show you what decor they like the same as every other fish does :wink:

Yes you can cover the intake with a sponge

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

Just did a 5g water change on their tank with pure RO water, its a 30g tank. There is a storm front rolling in and I have the windows open to let in the barometric pressure change... I hope this works!
Tomorrow I will do it again, its supposed to be storming all week :D

Re: Hi everyone! Questions!

I keep 5 in a 30g tank by themselves. Personally I wouldn't ever keep them with other fish, they are a little too expensive to risk!
