That's pretty cool...you hafto wonder tho, is it real? I see no reason why it wouldn't be tho, seeing as the shell doesn't grow with the crab.

That's pretty cool. Where did you find it? Such a thing would be great to have for educational purposes.

Kinda makes you wonder if the glass shell would be too heavy for it to use ...
Cool pic though.

They can't be any heavier than what they use in the wild...when I was in cozumel scuba diving, down 60 feet in the water, my cousin and I found hermit crabs with conch shells 10-12 inches long....those were some freakin huge hermit crabs...lol not the same species, I know, but still, the weight I'm sure is so little difference for the crabs to lug around.
