Should I remove their painted shells when they swap?

Just got 3 Eccies today. Saw one swap into a green turbo... and then go back in his old one. Should I take it out asap next time? Or could I potentially have a naked crabby running around..?

With Es it's better to wait and make sure they don't have buyers remorse. PPs won't ditch for anything but serious reasons, but Es can be weird about shells and will run nakey if they aren't happy.
