Zebras are a great choice for a nocturnal fish. They appreciate plenty of rockwork and driftwood in their environment for hiding and should not be kept with other bottom dwelling fish that will out compete Zebras for food. Ideal water temperatures for Zebras are between 77-86 degrees, with an abundance of live plants in order to provide an oxygen rich environment.
