Are polished tapestry turbo bad cause polish or no ??. Are they popular at allMotörcrab wrote:I found that crabs end up picking what they want to. We have had small crabs switch into shells 2-3 times larger than we would think they would need. Also large crabs move into smaller shells. I found it is best to order a variety of different shapes and sizes. Our crabs seem to like mostly the green, polished gold mouth, and tapestry turbos. Be sure to get different types of shells otherwise they ALL will change into the same color shells and have a tough time telling them apart.

They are usually pretty quick with getting orders out, I have received orders between 3-7 days. On occasion with a larger order they threw in a free food shell.

They are usually the ones you see with dolphins and palm trees and stripes carved into them. They are usually a bit lighter than a non carved shell of the same type and size depending on how much was ground away.
I am not sure what they actually use to buff and polish a shell. I would think they would use some compound similar to a car wax or maybe a super fine grit sandpaper to achieve the super shiny look. I know with the shell I carved i got down to the pearl but did not look shiny.
