    hi guys, hope all is well. Do dwarf hermits need spare shells to grow into or do they stay relatively the same size and keep the same shell? may need some spares. :)

    I started off with 20 of these although some seem to of disappeared others have definately grown and taken over other shells. I would get some larger shells and just drop them in your tank, its quite fascinating the first time you see one change shells:)
