African giant snails are becoming increasingly popular as terrarium animals in continental Europe. While these large snails were primarily known and loved as terrarium pets in the UK, they have been gaining significance in German-speaking regions for some time now. In this booklet, we aim to share our experiences with the care and breeding of the African giant snail (Achatina fulica). Since these animals prove to be relatively uncomplicated in terms of care and maintenance, we believe they are ideal for beginners in the terrarium hobby. However, there are several important considerations to keep in mind when caring for this species. With this volume, we want to provide anyone interested in these snails with a guide to their proper and successful care. The books in this series introduce the most popular terrarium animals, species by species. Each volume offers detailed, practical care instructions, and you will find all the information you need to successfully breed your animals. All important questions, from the required tank size to terrarium setup, technical equipment, species-appropriate nutrition, and disease prevention, are answered with numerous tips and tricks. Experienced, long-time breeders share how to encourage the animals to breed and how to raise the young snails healthily. All of this is presented in full color, generously illustrated, and attractively designed, focusing solely on your terrarium animal—species by species.
