Just to let everyone know, when I get my hands on some zebras I intend to try and breed them. So any advice anyone has would be awesome. Of course don't expect me to be selling any time soon, but I do want to help others get their hands on some as well. I know this sounds kinda far fetched at the time being, but we all love to dream about beautiful fish. Well most of us dream about fish, there is that 1% that dream about flying, cars, and the opposite gender, but the other 99%... definitely FISH

Awesome. I saw two of mine in a pvc segment this morning, and my heart skipped a beat. Only when I came home did I realize that the two males had had a disagreement, and had fought it out.

Alternating between low/high temperature in two week intervals imitates the natural course of events leading up to the spawning season.

Other things to watch for are low nitrates and current.

I want some of these but can;t get them in Australia. And if I could they would fetch approx $800 plus each so the guy from the fish shop said.

Send me some! Well have to smuggle them in!
