Default New to shellies

I intend to get some shellies but not sure what shells they call by looking at some bro pics here. I'd some shells and not sure whether suitable or not.
The top left shells maybe but what about the rest?
Anyone can guide me? Thanks in advance.

Bro, I would use the top 4 shells. Also it depends on what shell dweller you intend to keep. Any lobang for shell dwellers?

Bud, most of us that keeps shellies go to Cold Storage and buy frozen escargot shells (XL size). Comes in pack of 12 for $14, eat the meat, keep the shells.

No lobang yet. I'm preparing all the stuff before before any shell dwellers catch my eye.

Sad to say, hardly see any shell dwellers nowadays except for the few common ones. Happy to see that you are expanding!

It is seasoned already la, put inside oven or microwave, follow the instructions on package and u are good to go. BTW NOT all Cold Storage sells escargot shells. I went to afew and finally found 1 in Heartland Mall (Kovan). Tampines don't have!!

That's precisely the point, the common ones have be.They had become way too "common". en on the shelf for so many months. We need new injects and I believe product life cycle are applicable to fishes as well at least to the individual.
