Hermit Shells

Any idea where I can get shells for my hermits? I have noticed that 2 of them have left their shells and died trying to find new bigger ones. I want to try and provide them with bigger shells before they decide to kill my turbos in envy!

Can I get them anywhere other than my LFS...neither of my LFS's have shells (well, they do...but only shells for the decorative above water crabs, and they are expensive).

Thanks,
Mike

PS - I came home the other day to find Monica (Blenny) missing...any ideas? Maybe Condi or Rummy ate her???

 

Go to a craft store and see if you can find them there.

Hard to say what happened to your blenny but unless the fish was dying or already dead, I wouldn't blame your crab or shrimp.

 

Monica seemed really healthy last I saw her...and now she's MIA...I have no idea what happened to her...guess I will never know.

Thanks for the craft store tip...I will check that out!

My blenny jumped , check the floor around the tank... :-[

Scooter Blenny (see signature)

I was able to find some shells at AC Moore...thanks for the tips...one of my crabs has already found a new home!

Thanks again,
Mike

 

How old is the tank and how long have you had the scooter? Was it eating frozen food or no?
