F y i: the shell actually originates from Caribbean Islands ; did you get your C.violascens & C.purpureus from Singapore petshops ? Or did you get them from the wild ?

That's quite far away.

I got the shell from a local forum member.

The hermies are from local petshop. Where they got 'em from is a big question mark. There's hardly any wild for the hermies here.

Btw, do you know of any reliable online store to get shells and stuff in this region?

... the pictures above proving that they're not a blue ruggie and I'm almost sure that they are a subspecies of the Ryukyuan ones.

A suspect new subspecies of blueberry from Central Indonesia found by one of my fellow collectors in Surabaya:
