Using the search facility (top toolbar) to search previous topics in the forums will give you the answer much quicker than posting the question.
Obviously there is not set rule for cave size. Here's a quote from Lyretail on some he made:
I made 4 caves - 2 caves internal dimensions are 4 cm wide by 2.5 cm tall and two at 3.5cm wide and 2.5cm tall. All four are 11 cm long internally.

Cave-ins?!?!?!...how much rock are you intending to put on them? Remember rock etc is lighter when in water.
Unless you intend to use all the rubble from the great wall if China or make caves using paper and lipstick with the skill of an inept partially sighted geriatric I doubt your going to have to even consider the possibility of a cave-in.

Wow, hamish, that is great. How do you drill into that and what type of rock is it?
Buddy- Are you planning on putting caves high up in this "cliff type" arrangement? Because since the zebras are bottom dwellers, they generally will avoid using the higher caves. So it may be somewhat of a moot point.
