I've found my sanguinea to be the hardiest, but ventratas (what you'll probably find at the local greenhouse) are pretty tolerant too. I started with a ventrata from a greenhouse myself, it's pretty much foolproof.

Raff's are easy if you have a warm terrarium.

I meant to say that Raff's tolerate warm conditions, into the low 30's (°C).

A couple Ventrata I bought that were looking pretty rough from Terra perked up just hanging in my bathroom window. Definitely recommend this one for easy care.
