Lima scabra, also known as the flame scallop, is a bivalve mollusk with a particularly decorative bright red mantle. Native to shallow reef areas, it is appreciated for its ability to naturally filter the water in reef aquariums.
This bivalve uses the water current passing between its two rough valves to capture suspended particles, microalgae, and phytoplankton. In some geographic areas, it even emits a bioluminescent light to attract micro prey. It is a passive and visually stunning catcher.
Lima scabra thrives in calm and shaded areas of the aquarium, between live rocks or on a gravel substrate. Very fine sand is not recommended. It is compatible with hermit crabs and peaceful invertebrates.
Lima scabra primarily feeds on phytoplankton. In mature tanks rich in microfauna, it will find a good portion of its food naturally. Regular supplements may be necessary depending on the population and water flow.
Lima scabra is a decorative, filtering, and useful bivalve that will bring both balance and originality to your reef aquarium. Installed in a stable tank, it will actively contribute to the water clarity while offering a discreet but captivating display.
