I've never seen that, but we did have a conversation earlier on the forum about how food can give the white a tint - especially prawns - but I haven't heard of green
Can you post a picture of him?

I don't think the lettuce would be the cause of a green tinge.... Can you get the zebra in question out of the tank and get a clear picture of it in a temp container?

sparkee,
What are you feeding them apart from Lettuce.
They are not really vegetarians !!!!!!

blood worm. daphina, white and black mosquito larvae 6 out of 7 days. and the 7th day lettuce. they do seem to like it as you can see little teeth marks on it in the morning
