  • Large first chamber fits hermit crabs so your pet has a cozy new home to explore
  • Hand-drawn with math formulas that create the natural spiral pattern crabs love
  • Printed on demand just for you, so you get a unique design for your tank
  • Made from durable 3D-printed material that holds up to daily use and moisture

Your hermit crab gets a home that looks and feels natural. This nautilus shell is built with a big first chamber, so your pet can settle in and feel secure. You pick the size and color that fits your tank.

The shell uses a special math formula called the Fibonacci spiral. Each curve matches how real shells grow in nature. The design came from Project Shellter, a group making homes for hermit crabs worldwide. Every shell prints fresh for your order, so you always get a quality piece.

What it is made of

Designs like this print well in PLA. Compare the materials.

Printed plastic is strong for its size, but it is not metal. We have not load tested this design, so we do not publish a weight rating. Keep it out of a hot car and away from open flame.
