Rarest snail?
Hmm... let's thinks.
Maybe my Asolene megastoma snail is quite rare. Or perhaps those unidentified Asolene snails I have here. They are small (1.5 to 2 cm), but are definately asolene apple snails. They could well be a non-described species.
And yes, I do have live Asolene spixi snails. They are really nice and easy snails. I do have many babies at the moment....
But I feel that a question is in the air: How did I get these snails?
Well, once in a while, people send me living snail species. That's the advantage I have at the moment due to the success of this website.
Can one buy these snails?
I corresponding with some people in Uruguay, who breed several unusual species. I think they are planning to sell these. I'll keep you all informed.
Shells?
These are more easily to order on-line. Just check for shell sellers, and look for Ampullariidae shells.
