Holy Shells Batman!

So I was looking at the reefcleaners website last week and noticed that they sell shells. My scarlet hermit crabs have been in their shells a long time and I don't have any larger ones in my tank for them to grow into.

 

Reefcleaners sells two categories of shells. Small hermit shells, and shells that range from 2-3 inches. The problem, however, is that scarlet hermits are much larger than a standard red or blue leg, but no where near big enough to fit into the larger shells.

 

I wrote John Maloney a message explaining this issue and he had his packers pick out special sized shells that would fit my hermits. I am extremely happy with this order and will definitely be coming back to reefcleaners for a much larger order when I start my new tank.

 

Check out these bad boys!

If my hermits can't find something they like here, I might have to make a bisque. LOL!

 

BTW, a very generous supply was packed in my order. Rock and Roll!

 

Thanks John!

I like the spiky ones

Right!? They're pretty cool. I think these are what John called combs. Wouldn't want to sit on one of those.

how much was this pack?

The shells are literally pennies a piece. Aside from that, I just paid for shipping. I would have ordered more, but I'll be starting over again soon. So, I didn't want to get any livestock.

 

The white ones above the combs are cool too.

Yes! Those are some of my favorites. They're so smooth it's like polished marble. They look like marble too.

the spiky ones remind me of guitars for some reason lol

:lol: That comment made me think of the Snorks using one for a little instrument.

LOL, remember the Snorks?!
