Ideal temp for zebra loaches?

[ACOhara]

I was reading another post on the forum that mentioned keeping their tank at 88 degrees. Seems really warm. What is ideal? What is considered 'cold' for small zebras?

That does seem quite warm (maybe a typo or were they treating a disease?) -- my five seem happy, active, and well-colored at 76-77F. They've doubled in size since I got them, now approaching full-grown. What temperature are you currently keeping your tank at?

temp is 76.9, exactly what you posted. I am glad to know that is not too cold - thanks!
