I'm not so sure I believe that. A dead Zebra gets pale pretty fast, it's fins detoriate, and the body gets rather limp (duh). They don't look dead...
He says this happen during a few days. IF they're dead then none of them have been dead more than a an hour in my opinion
I don't think that's for real, but have no idea what the posters motivation for claiming it is are

I really do hope that this is a joke of some sort, if it's not that is one devasting loss .
I'm inclined to agree with McEve, the guy says that they died over a couple of days. If this is the case they look pretty fresh to me, I would expect to see a lot more deterioation in their appearance. Like McEve says their colour fades pretty quick, also their eyes should be a lot more sunken than they are. Not too sure what to make of this

Hi guys,
If that's for real then its a sad loss....
To me the fish could still look fresh even when dead if you freeze them straight away in a container or tub then taking them out to thaw a bit then to photograph. I freeze all my prized fish for future references.
Cheers,
Clint

Hi Ed_R,
The link was to a picture of 14 "dead" zebras lined up in two rows . I can't see the picture as well now when I could this morning. Perhaps it has been removed or the ISPs server is down or something.

Hi everyone,
How many of you have seen 14 Zebras with identical stripes/patterns and the rare "heart shape" on the top?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.
To have one fish with this heart shape is rare (I have one), but to have 14 with a heart shaped pattern is more than a coincidence.
In my opinion , it is ONE fish , taken in different "poses" and then placed next to each other on the "photograph".
Regards,
Des.

Did anyone save the pic?
Posted: Mon Apr 11, 2005 9:23 pm
Don't matter, the pic is working again.
Des, you are right, thats definately photshopped. I dunno why, but I didn't even think about it...and I work with Photoshop everyday....and have done for the past 8-9 years

Hi DrP,
I'm glad you agree. I just happened to notice that the stripes were identical on all the fish. Maybe it was somebodys idea of an April fool joke, that got slightly delayed. I'm surprised how many people were fooled.
Don't know much about photoshop. Just using it to resize my photos is a challenge!!!! But getting there slowly.

LOL. The more I look at that pic, the more possitive I am it is photoshopped. Look at the perspective of the fish on the back row....thats not quite right.

ehhhhhhh 
Definately looks like a bit of a hoax! But why
Unless he has promised varous people fish he doesn't have. it would be a sure way of putting them off the scent.
I see he hasn't written anything else on the post, you would have thought he could be climbing the walls for a reason by now!
