Re: No shells that fit my hermit crab
Hi!
The largest opening Naples has is a green jade turbo and black murex. Both have a 2" opening (appx 5cm). Not sure what the opening size of your crab's shell is:

They do ship outside the US.
According to the care sheet for Aussie crabs:
"Shells: Many of the shells they come in are native to Australia and not sold commercially. Many will move into turbo, macron, and various murex species. Like other species of hermit crab, they heavily modify the interior of their shells and are reluctant to move to a new shell."
