rare as hens teeth
picked these zeb's up on the 14/12/2006, very lucky to get hold off zebra's here in australia. manage to find 3 adults 7 years old 2 males & 1 female? believed to be wild caught.
male 1 didn't want his photo taken ( couldn't get him out of his cave )
male 2 9cm has a cave of his own
female 8cm stays in a hollow log looking through her window.
they have never spawned for the person who had them, he keeped them in water temp 25*c not warm enough i believe.
can you confirm that this is a pair, thankyou.

the first photo shows male on the left, female ? on the right. these two are both 7 years old brought up under the same conditions. if you take note of the pectoral fins, the one on the right has very fine fins & much smaller & thinner hairs ( odontodes ). looks like a male in the head but it stays in the log(bottom photo).
thanks for your comments so far, hope to get more, i know your out there McEve & Rob.

Either way, both need conditioning before they can prove us all wrong!

i feed new life spectrum,spectrum H2O stable wafers,frozen food 1/4 cube of bloodworm,brine shrimp & some times i replace brine shrimp for daphnia. i feed once a night ( at lights out ).there is some times a little bit of wafer left in the morning, is this enough to condition them up or do i feed them more often.
thanks everyone for your comments so far.
