For an animal in the wild, eating a fluorescent zebrafish is the same as eating any other zebrafish. Their fluorescence is derived from a gene that is already found in nature and is completely safe for the environment. Just as eating a blue fish would not turn a predator blue, eating a fluorescent fish will not make a predator fluoresce.
