Hi Neo,
Very nice, I think that your new zeb looks like a female. I can't say for sure from the picture though. Looks like the zebra bug has bitten you hard on the butt.
I'm feeling a bit left out as you guys are all getting new zebs, I haven't bought one in months. I feel a purchase coming on soon.

Hi Neo
Nice looking little fish. It's a difficult one to comment on as we can't really see it. If it's over 2.5" I would say you hopefully have a female there.
Need to get a close up of those gill plates and pecs though.

Yeah im thinking female also, fingers crossed
i had Zebs years back when Rob also started then a few year ago gave up all my fish, wished i had not, i sold some really great wild caught adult Zebs
impossible to find nowadays almost, anyways back in with varies fish and tanks all over the place, zeb 5 comes on tuesday and zeb 6,7 & 8 i collect on the 19th so hopefully i will have some deffinate females lol, and yeah if you can get some zebs get out and get them
i feel the need for another zeb tank in a few months and maybe another 8 zebs lol who knows

Hi Neo
I've blown up one of your new photo's and I do believe I see some pretty long hairs on the gill plates.
it's starting to look like a young male. This is not always gospel however as I do have a hairy lady myself!!!!

Neo,
It's not too clear from the photo but I would have to agree with Rob, the zeb does look like a juvenile male.
