Aggression is completely normal for mbuna. That being said, you should not be trying to promote the breeding of hybrids, which is exactly what you'd end up with if your lab breeds with a zebra. If they do breed, I'd have to suggest you don't bother letting the babies grow up.

if your talking a cobalt blue zebra? yes it might try to mate with the labs, but that gets hybrids, and no-one wants those in the industry as it'll weaken any pure stock. Mbuna will chase eachother around plenty as they vie for territory. Rocks and caves help break this behavior up, but expect to still see aggression.
