Decorate Your Hermit Crab Shells: The Best Way to Paint

Posted by on 2/19/2021 to

Hermit crabs are one of the most amazing sea creatures. Besides being beautiful, it is absolutely interesting. This is the reason why many people have a soft spot for this crawly critter. They are fascinating enough to make you spend your entire day just by looking at them. The fact that you can witness them grow at a continuous pace is pretty spell-bounding. 

When it comes to kids, they are incredibly appealed by the beautiful and exotic hermit crab shells. Along with the fact that you can color it in your desired pattern, they are absolutely inexpensive. 

You can always go out and buy shelves online from reliable sellers to paint them with color hues. The North Florida Shells is an online seller of dried sea creatures that offers the best collection of hermit crab shells at affordable rates.

Decorate Your Hermit Crab Shells: The Best Way to Paint

This post consists of easy tips for a creative hermit crab shell painting activity. Perhaps, this is the guide you will need to make your activity more enjoyable! 

  1. When buying hermit crab shells from North Florida Shells, make sure that they are slightly larger than the size of your hermit's current shell. This way, you can guarantee that the crab will fit perfectly into the shell that you bought as it grows. 
  2. Look for a design that you want to paint on your hermit crab shell. Using brighter colors with creative patterns will make the shell look more attractive. Also, darker colors are not good for your hermit as it can absorb too much of the sunlight, making the crab feel hot if it is already in a humid environment. 
  3. Get acrylic paint to color your hermit crab shells. Keep in mind that you do not have to use the paint on the inside part of the shell. Let it dry for at least a day or more than that. 
  4. It is time that you place the new shell into the tank! Your hermit crab might not move into the shell immediately as it will wait until the shell molts. This means that the crab will shed its old shell to feel comfort during its growing period. This might even take just a night. So, you do not need to worry about it. 

That is it; you have your custom hermit crab shell!
