Zebras were the first egglayer I bred. It was accidental. I had them in QT in a very heavily planted tank on my desk. After moving them into their permanent home, tiny fry were seen hanging on the glass and plants. I did not raise many as I did not have enough infusoria ready when they needed it, but it was not hard either. After that I was not afraid of tiny fry.

These days I have tanks of Java Moss for my rainbowfish fry, that is perhaps the best infusoria and fry nursery plant I know.
