Short description:
Limicolaria flammea belongs to the very small agate snails. At first sight their shell looks as if it was cast out of porcelain. The purple flames stand out on the ivory ground coloration and gives Limicolaria flammea a beautiful look. As with all snails, a group should consist of at least 3 animals. The terrarium should not fall below a size of 80 × 40 × 40 cm. Although they belong to the tree- and shrub-dwelling snails, Limicolaria flammea also burrow occasionally. For this reason, the limed forest humus should have a height of 10 cm. The substrate does not have to be muddy, a humidity of 70-80% is quite sufficient. A bathing bowl as a fixture should not be missing.
Limicolaria flammea is easy to care for and also suitable for the one or other novice. Sepia should be offered permanently, so that the shell grows faultlessly and the snail does not get deficiency symptoms. The food can be experimented with, vegetables and fruits are gladly accepted. This you get from the organic store of your confidence.
