    Well, I have both a male and female Java living with another male and female Zebra, they can live quite happily but be warned; breeding and the males will get protective and the Java could kill the Zebra males - for best breeding results seperate the pairs, but for normal housing (non-breeding purposes) then yes, they can live happily, i've seen the combination in many aviarys including my own!
