just a wee update
just a wee update
not been on in a while so just a wee update with my zebs
they are all fine and are looking very healthy and look great,no spawns as of yet. but i think 4 or 5 of my zebs are near the mature age.ive added the terracota cave to my tank to go with my diy slate caves which my zebs like both types of caves.id say i have 3 cave dweling zebs but they always seem to move caves every few days tho tonight i had 4 caves with a zeb in each with there tails hanigng out lol
at the end of oct im moving house so my zebs will need to up root an leave but my new house is only 5mins up the road also they have a new tank to move in to its a jewel 1000 deep duo for 12 zebs.does any 1 think thats to big for them>as in there current rena tank its bout the same size the zebs seem to be all over the tank would it be better to make them stay closer together for breeding?
there new tank will be a new design with more open area so i can maybe see them more half slate bottom half sand. and more dark areas in tank to

Hey ryan,
Sorry, missed your post.
What's the dimensions of this new jewel tank (don't know that type) and the dimensions of your current tank?
My zebs don't like open spaces in daylight, only at night.
So don't get your hopes up to see them more often
Good luck on your moving house!

yeh its a wee bit smaller as the tank is only will have zebs it it,the expensive rena tank kinda goes to waste as you dont see any fish unless u look for the zebs and its my main tank in the living room,in the new house the zebs will be in the spare room away from the dog that bounces around a scares them lol.
i may sell my rena tank or start a new world tank
