Lined Bubble Shell

[g00kski]

So I came across this kind of slug that is amazingly beautiful! Does anyone know where I can get one? I looked everywhere online and can't find much on keeping it in your tank, but I read a few threads with people saying they have one.

They are generally not offered in the trade and really aren't well suited to life in captivity anyway. They're specialized to feed on hair worms, which although common in the hobby aren't abundant enough in any tank to support one of these slugs long term.

...not to mention, that "long term" doesn't really mean long in our terms; this particular species may live longer than other Bullina species, but they won't normally live more than a few months in a reef tank.

Cheers,
