Some advice/answers for a newbie?

Hi everyone, I'm a newbie to this board and was hoping for a wealth of info. :wink: I'm Michelle from Canada, Newfoundland.
I was wondering the ideal tank sizes for keeping the Hypancistrus zebra species. I wasn't sure, because they're not a very large fish in terms of growth- but sometimes size isn't always a factor.
I was hoping for information on them as well, such as ideal tank mates, habits, temperaments, weaknesses/strengths, preferred foods, etc. I'm hoping to invest in some. :D
I'm a loach person mostly, but I've got some pictus catfish. However, I'm planning on giving the zebra(s) their own tank- perhaps get their tankmates in first?
Any advice or information would be appreciated.
Thanks everyone!

Michelle,
Try a quick forum search. You will find a wealth of information on H. zebra. Also, check the articles section in Shane's World.
