Hopefully you'll still love ebay when the filters get there...
Seriously, I'd do more than 10% water changes per day if your parameters are anything less than perfect. Why would you spend the money on zebras and risk them in an uncycled aquarium? These fish are endangered. This whole post makes me sad to read to be honest. Your fish aren't "getting ready" if they're out in the open. They're struggling and stressed. They're better to have NO food right now than worry about getting them to spawn as quickly as possible. Dead fish aren't going to be able to spawn at all. Concentrate on keeping them alive first....
