No, Zebras are really too active for such a small tank. A single male guppy might be ok as long as you change about 1/2 the water every 3-4 days.

Danios prefer to be in large groups because it provides security in the wild. Also, these fish are absolutely hyperactive and it will soon injure itself by ramming into the bowl's sides too ofter (10 gallon minimum, 20 is recommended). If you wanted to keep the frog, you should get rid of the air stone and get a filter (basically, you need a real tank). If you keep the frog in a bowl, you will need to change the water 2-3 times a week to prevent the waste from clogging its skin pores.

A Zebra Danio, no!!! They're school fish plus they need more space to swim. Get an African Dwarf Frog. They can be in a gallon fish bowl. Just get something to cover it and make sure there are holes so air can get in and it can't get out.
Here is some info about them...

Just make sure the water is clean. Do water changes ever 4 - 5 days.

Zebra danios need to be in a school and the african dwarf frog may eat them and also they need enough room to swim.

please get a extra physically powerful tank. a fishbowl isn't sufficiently massive for any fish, not count number how small. even a minnow could sense crowded in a fishbowl. please purchase a generously sized 5 gallon tank for it. that's far less tense for the fish. am i able to tell u a sprint tale? i had a beta. it became right into a lifeless peach colour. it lived in a a million galllon fish bowl. i then moved him to a 5 gallon tank. over a direction of a pair of million week, he grew to alter into pink! PEACH to pink! he became into for sure happier! so please positioned him in a minimum of a 5 gallon tank in basic terms 4 the sake of the fishie!!

Try maybe a guppy or molly in your bowl, they are beautiful but better for a bowl. If you want an african dwarf frog, I would get a tank.

absolutely not. for each froggy, i would suggest 2 gallons each. for the fishies, i suggest 2 gallons each fish too. i would get a 5 gallon tank and put 1 of each or a pair (better in pairs) basically, 2 fish (or frogs... lol) to every 5 gallons.
