Shells online storeShells online store On one occasion, following a week of stormy weather, we visited the "bar" for an afternoon's shelling only to find that rough seas had caused havoc to parts of the reef. However, among a lot of broken debris we managed to 'salvage' between us three C. cylindrica, two C. caurica and four C. quadrimaculata all alive. Further poking amongst the debris yielded two dead C. stolida, one almost completely calcified, the other in fair condition though beginning to deteriorate across the dorsum. In view of the fact that a live specimen had been found here about a month before (the third recorded in Singapore), it seemed reasonable to assume that the elusive C. stolida was perhaps not so elusive after all.

The shelling a few years ago before the big population explosion over there, was quite productive. We got lovely specimens of Conus distans, Cypraea mauritiana, C. maculifera and other shells whose habitat is the high surf area. As usual, the cleaning was a problem and especially so because in the short time we were there, the ants couldn't work hard enough to suit us. We couldn't freeze them as the house came equipped with the barest refrigerating essentials like a box of about 4 cubic feet with room for only two small ice trays. And in Kona in summer, you just have to have ice for various thirst quenchers. So, we had to cope with the cleaning problem by employing the services of the ants and flies. We didn't want to bury the shells and mess up the nice little garden, so we just strew the shells in little piles like my pile is here your pile is there and don't touch each other's pile or else Shells online store shells online store,laundry basket,shell bit bone beading blend,jewelry kids accessories,shell box wallets,shell jewelries,wood decoration tile,philippines trade,wholesale jewelry coco,shells online store
