I am not an expert but from my zebs I have had some young ones and they never were hurt by ro water. Just thought I give you my 2 cents.

Ok, I would like this to be answered by people who have successfully spawned the zebras please... Cave placement...is the currant cross wise, dead on, at the back? How many of you use power heads? How many times do you clean your tank? What percentage water change do you do? What is the most effecti...

I feed blood worms...that are frozen. How do I kill them? Will the zebras eat them and will they hurt the zebs?

I put a post on here and zebra pleco a couple weeks back about some small worm like things that are in my tank. I haven't noticed them in a while but while I was cleaning today I happened to look closely at my bio 10 filter and saw that the whole thing looks full of these "worms"! What do ...

:cry: I don't know what happened...I had one zebra in a 55 gallon tank. I had run the tank and had just taken out the other fish I had in there when I got my zebra after saving for eons because they were harrasing it.
