hi all
hi all, new to the site, only just recently come across zebra plecs, and got to say im very taken by them, have been thinking for a while what to set up a tank for next( already have tropical and cichlid tank) and i think i might have found the answer. think of a long sloped tank with large pumps to recirculate to water to get the constant water flow, trying to recreate a flowing river. still in early thought process, any thoughts on this? any uk breeeder of zebra plecs? you help would be appreciated.

Re: hi all
Welcome to the site.
As for tank design, there is no reason a river flow type tank would not be a perfectly good way to go. I am not sure you really need to slope it. The most important issues in a zebra tank are adequate cover and well oxygenated water. I have three tanks with zebras and each one is set up differently.

What makes the common person uncommon is common sense.
