Hermit Crab Shells

I was wondering where everyone gets spare shells for their hermit crabs? My crabs are growing quickly. I did pick up some from J&L, but they appear to be out growing them again. I found a great...

Well let me know how the peppermints do slakker - and I didn't know they ate flatworms as well. Interesting. Still, I'd hate to get some shrimp and have them walk over the aptasia to get to something...

This is pretty funny. I can see them now, surrounding the unsuspecting aptasia before going in for the kill.

I'm curious after reading the articles linked here - but it appears from the articles that the tank requirements are for one fish. At least that's how I read them. Am I wrong? I'm in the process of...

So what's the answer then? The display tank is now infected with ich and there's no cure! I can't set up a QT in time to get the fish out and not infect the main tank. I appear to be screwed.
