Best Answer

Zebra Danios (Brachidanio rerio) are usually bred in small tanks of around 24"x12"x12" in about 4 or 5 inches of water. They scatter none adhesive ova (eggs) which sink to the bottom fairly rapidly. A layer of glass marbles is usually placd on the base of the tank so that the ova can slip down between them to stop the adults from being able to eat them. Once spawning is complete the adults are removed from the tank.
