Lima hians – Marble Bivalve Filter for Reef Tanks

Lima hians is a small reef bivalve with captivating behavior. With a marbled color and a slightly translucent white shell, it is very similar to the famous Lima scabra, both in appearance and in its ability for movement and filtration.

A filtering and mobile animal

Unlike traditional sedentary bivalves, Lima hians is capable of moving quickly by rapidly opening and closing its shell. This behavior, used to escape danger or reposition itself, adds a touch of dynamism to the aquarium.

Natural filter for clear water

Like its cousin Lima scabra, Lima hians feeds on suspended particles, plankton, and microalgae. It thus helps to maintain clear water, especially in well-balanced reef tanks rich in microfauna.

Maintenance conditions

  • Minimum recommended volume: 80 liters
  • Temperature: 23°C to 27°C
  • pH: 8.0 to 8.4
  • Water flow: moderate to strong, for passive planktonic feeding
  • Behavior: mobile, peaceful, filtering

Compatibility and advice

Lima hians is harmless to corals, fish, and invertebrates. However, it is sensitive to water parameters and requires good stability in the reef tank. It prefers shaded or partially sheltered areas, near the substrate or live rocks.

Why choose Lima hians?

  • Adds movement thanks to its mobility
  • Effective filter to improve water quality
  • Aesthetic with its marbled white shell
  • Perfectly compatible with reef tanks
  • Unique and discreet species to observe

Lima hians is a decorative and useful filtering bivalve, ideal for bringing life, balance, and elegance to a well-established reef aquarium. Its surprising mobility and natural role make it a popular choice among passionate aquarists.
