Your Cepaea are beautiful, and so is their tank! I love the use of live plants in there  I love the picture of the snail peeking over the top of the tank. |

Thank you guys  I think the peeking snail and the snail giving the piggy back are both Lola, Haven't decided a name for the one getting a ride yet! Live plants do make the tank look better, but they do need replacing often because they don't last more than a couple of weeks unfortunately :/ My most recent ones seem to have lasted a while though! |

The tiny ones are adults of a tiny species, they actually just had some babies themselves The babies are so small that when I moved them into a smaller tank I had to pick them up on the blunt end of a sewing needle! I'm glad I saw them before I cleaned out the tank! |

I have cepaeas as well, hortensis and nemoralis. I keep them in separate tanks. The two types of plants I use are Hostas and English Ivy which I place in pots then put in the tank (coyotes Idea) I have never had to change then they grow great in the tanks and not even near sunlight. The English Ivy leaves grow fairly large and the snails like to hang on the underside of the largest leaves and they do like to eat hostas but not so much that they would eat the whole plant.
