exactly a month on from my 1st ever spawn i have just checked the cave again and the male has a female in there again :lol: :lol: :lol: cant believe it i must be doing something rite. my other 9 babies are doing great growing nicely in the tank so hopefully more on their way to join them. not bad for only having the zebs for a year or so.

My experience has been that about a month is the normal time one should see between spawns when the the fish are in spawning mode. This can go on for a number of months before they will pause for a few months.
