	Sexing Zebra Danio's
bcwcat22 Big Fish Posts: 395 Kudos: 314 Votes: 34 Registered: 16-Jul-2005	Is there any way other than the little yellow lines to sex Zebra Danio's?? I recently went to my LFS and needed 2 tank mates for my other Zebra's I wanted 2 females but looking at the tank filled with zebra's I relized there was no way I would be able to pick out the males from the females. I got them any way I think I got 1 female 1 male but I still am not sure. If any one could help it would be very much apreciated.

Also, zebra danios are schooling fish, which means they should be kept in groups of 6 or more. What size is your tank? Last edited by fishnewbie at 05-Aug-2005 20:22
