Hey guys, I'm setting up a shelldweller tank, and I have gotten everything I need, except for the shells. Anyone got any that I could buy off you?

I have a bunch of sea shells, I can go $0.25 a shell plus shipping. I will post pics after school if you want.
 
Shells, that are around 1inch in diameter, I would prefer escargot shells if you have any or and freshwater snail shells that fit in that size range

If you have a Walmart near you they have escargot shells /w/ escargot for 8$

If you check grocery stores I've seen the shells there - in some of the international sections if you don't want a trip to Walmart

Where are they in walmart? I looked for like 45 minutes.


May the force be with you.
 
I've seen then with international food. People use them to decorate plates I guess?

I've also seen some shells near the craft stuff- where the colored sand/sticks/vases/ candles are

Should I boil them? Or just throw them right in?
