Harpa Shells (Large) x5

Harpa Shells (Large) x5

Natural seashells that are great for offering Hermit Crabs new homes. These ones are sized at approximately 4 - 6cm. These ones are a larger shell and therefore better for substantially sized Hermit Crabs. These shells have a large opening of approximately 3 - 4cm.

These are a premium shell, the photos you see are of the actual specimens that you will receive. The shells have a large wide opening so will probably only be suitable for certain larger hermit crabs, but given their intricate detailing, will also provide aesthetic decor to the aquarium.

Harpa articularis, also known as the articulate harp shell. The rather thin shell is ovate and ventricose. The spire is conical, indistinctly muricated. The ribs are pretty narrow, distant and slightly flattened. They are marked by transverse brown lines, articulated and winding like light festoons.

Natural seashells that are great for offering Hermit Crabs new homes. In an established healthy aquarium there should always be a good selection of shells in the aquarium that are bigger than the occupied hermit crab shells.

Hermit Crabs regularly outgrow their current shell and will need a good choice of available shells in order to grow and facilitate the crab as it sheds and requires a larger shell.

Different types of Hermit Crabs will prefer different types of shell, so it's always a good idea to have a good variety of shells and sizes available.
