Post by will74 »

Anybody got any hints and tips on secret recipes, homemade food and store bought food for zeb's. Also how do you keep the current from carrying it away?
My tank is a 30 long with 2 330 gph powerhead's hooked to ugj sysyem with sponge intakes, A fluval 405, and a tidepool 2 sump. Tank dimensions are 35"X12"X16.5"{LxWxH}.

Hi Will,

Have you used the search feature for the board? You'll find a ton of great information in the 647 replies where food has been discussed ;). We're working on a forum sticky with links to the threads that help the most for new zebra keepers, but feeding is definitely one of those things that is covered repeatedly.

While zebras don't mind flow, if you have so much flow food won't stay on the bottom, you might rethink your return from the tidepool into a spraybar or something to diffuse the current a bit.
