Rails db:migrate aborted with "undefined local variable or method `limit'" why?

Question

Sorry for my English. I searched the site, but I could not find a solution. When I try to make rails db: migrate gives me this error:

C:\PW\Sites\grota>rails db:migrate
== 20170209014957 CreateWholesalers: migrating     ================================
-- create_table(:wholesalers)
-- limit()
rails aborted!

(See full trace by running task with --trace)

here is my migrate code:

class CreateWholesalers < ActiveRecord::Migration[5.0]
  def change
    create_table :wholesalers do |t|
      t.string "brand_name", :limit => 25
      t.string "username", :limit => 25
      t.string "password_digest"
      t.string "email", limit => 50
      t.decimal "latitude"
      t.decimal "longitude"
      t.timestamps
    end
  end
end

Thank you in advance.

This line is causing the error (missing :):

t.string "email", :limit => 50
