gid rid of small hermit shells ??

[lessthanmike]

just wondering if i should get rid of the small hermit crab shells. i put about 25 bigger shells in the tank and all but a few of the crabs got new ones. so should i pick out the old ones or just leave them,
thanks in advance, mike

Just leave them. The more shells around, the less compelled the crabs will feel to take shells from each other or from snails.

I leave mine in too. Plus, I think it looks cool
