Murex Pecten (Venus Comb) Shell Medium

A natural product with stunning details, and an eye-catching shape.

Great for use in a saltwater aquarium as decor and providing sanctuary for smaller creatures within the aquarium, it will also provide a great location for beneficial creatures such as copepods and amphipods.

Stunningly intricate, white/ off white specimen shells, specially selected from approved sources. Murex is the name given to a group of medium to large sized carnivorous tropical sea snails. Many of the species are found in Indo-Pacific waters, however, this shell is unique due to its array of spines. The spines provide protection from predators, and prevent the snail from sinking into soft mud.

WARNING -
These shells are extremely delicate and need to be handled with great care, the spines are also very sharp.
