Yes, red zebras are primarily herbivorous.ok, but like other mbunas red zebras survive off of vegies?
I would actually advise against this. Sometimes localized territoriality isn't a bad thing. Regularly rearranging everything gives your red zebra (or any other mbuna) opportunities to overstep it's bounds and disrupt any balance in your tank (you're basically re-setting established limits). For example it might be satisfied with just the cave. After a rearrangement it might aspire to claim the a different cave and a larger portion of the tank and react aggressively to trespassers, or a rival which was previousy set up at the opposite side of the tank now decides to establish a territory bordering that of the dominant, creating problems which didn't exist before.Make sure u have a bunch of caves and everytime you do a water change switch up the caves so they dont get so territorial that they start killing eachother off.
yea true ,With red zebras it all depends. Getting them young and keeping them in ideal gender ratio's (minimum 2-3 females per male, or 4 females for a single male)and perhaps having groups of other non-metriclima genus mbuna's in thte tank should help keep them in line (or at least occupied). When assured that they are the alpha fish, dominant males can be pretty laid back. With that said, specific challenges to their authority or breeding rights will probably be dealt with brutally. It should be expected that males will aspire to be tank dominants. Whether they suceed or not depends on specific tank dynamics.
well if you ever do happen to try that, make sure to post what happened! hehehe.yea true ,
but im thinking why my female killed and how she killed my big male,
he wasnt weak, he was tough he didnt take crap from anyone.
i should put the female and 2 males i have in 3ft
into my friends fully grown oscar tank with 2 big oscars
