Turbans - Turbo Shells

We carry a wide selection of wholesale turban shells for hermit crabs and shell craft and shell collecting. We have tapestry turbos, jade turbos, silver-mouth turbans, silver-mouth turbans, rough turbans, gold-mouth turbans, corded turbans, pearlized white turbos, and several other turbo shells. When the Caribbean hermit crab, or "purple pincher" as it is known in the pet trade is kept as a house pet, Turbo shells are a favorite choice of shells for the crab. Turbo is a genus of large sea snails in the family Turbinidae, the turban snails.. Most species are vegetarians, feeding on marine algae.
