Does anyone know where i can get shells in Singapore? I have been to a few pet stores and their shells are a little overpriced. Its like 1 shell for $5-$8 SGD and the bigger ones are about $8-$10 SGD per shell.
i did try to go to the hermit crab patch to order a pack of medium shells but it would cost me $60+ which kinda is a little pricey.....
So i was wondering if there is anyone who knows where i can get cheaper shells in Singapore OR knows of any websites to recommend which would be a little cheaper for me
I stay near the beach and can NEVER find shells. the only ones i find are clam shells.... and baby hermit crabs that are so so cute haha

Singapore's crab stuff will cost an arm and a leg,just because hermit's r like reptiles and most reptile items here are shipped from the U.S.,one question,where did you buy your crabs from?Exo terra tanks can range from $60(nano)-$500(36x18x24)
FYI:Make sure you wash the shells thoroughly!I found a few eggs in mine when i first bought them(What kind of eggs?IDK)
