@surveytestmoney2550 Actually, this shell update is fairly recent as the amount of plastic in the ocean increases. The only reason hermit crabs are resorting to trash is because they’re pushed to desperation, not because it’s mere instinct to prefer trash. It is true that humans need housing as well of course.

Also, the more shells collected means the more acidic the sand/water become. Shells breaking up on the shore adds a little base to the water, balancing out the PH and making the habitat healthier for the plants and animals that live in/near the water.
