ryanjury Posted August 10, 2010 Report Share Posted August 10, 2010 Cool good work There is always the risk of other males slipping in and having a go when they breed in mixed tanks, are there any other zebras in your tank? Are you planning on catching and stripping the female if she goes full term? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matto Posted August 10, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 10, 2010 no they are the only zebras in the tank and the male was chasing all the other fish away i think i will wait a few days then decide what im going to do :-? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smidey Posted August 11, 2010 Report Share Posted August 11, 2010 shes still holding im a bit worried as i have 2males and one female and its not going to be easy to source some more females why are you worried? she should be fine, the male will most likely calm down now he has had his way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matto Posted August 11, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 11, 2010 my male to female ratio is not great at all ,that's why im worried will she eat since its her first time holding? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
