So I bought a couple of Limicolaria flammea snails a few weeks ago, and I'm really struggling to find things they'll eat. I had two, but one of them I didn't see come out of its shell for the whole time I had it, and I'm pretty sure it has passed on. The other one, I've seen moving around but haven't seen it eat until today. I've tried everything that my fulicas and retics adore; courgette, lettuce, dried daphnia, fruit... nothin'. Not a nibble. Out of desperation I tried putting a piece of soaked dog kibble in there.
Little sod's gone straight for it. Is this normal behaviour for this species, does anyone have any experience of keeping them? I was told they were basically the same as Achatina reticulata care-wise, but I've never had trouble getting them to eat.
