L046 Zebras...adults with babies?
Posted: Sat Apr 16, 2005 5:34 pm
Hi, need some help here. I got 7 Zebra babies, about 1" -1.25"in size in a 12 gallon Acrylic tank, doing just fine..while they grow. I'm expecting 5 adults-juveniles next week, ranging in size from 2 1/2" to 3 1/2". Question: any risk of putting all these together? will the big ones pick on the little ones? If I want to breed the larger ones, what would be an adequate tank size.. I need to make preparations ASAP, so thanks for your help. PS; they had 12 for sale, only 5 were left! at least I got a piece out of it! Believe it or not, the 5 adults were wild caught.
I can't speak to keeping the larger zebs with the babies, but as for a breeding tank, I think anything 30G or larger is good for that many fish. I think some people even keep their groups in smaller tanks. If you get wind of any more for sale, don't hesitate to tip me off 
After you've taken your pick of course
