The problem with pictus cats in that tank would be that they are agressive feeders and do eat small fish like inch long Zebra Danios. But that depends on how big your Zebras are currently.

There are many species and varieties that could go into this tank, but it would be helpful if you could kind of list some of your likes. Cories of different varietes would be good as well as many others. Jim Water, taken in moderation, cannot hurt anybody. -- Mark Twain
