"Why Not Hand Over a “Shelter” to Hermit Crabs?" by Japanese sculptor Aki Inomata
Aki Inomata decided to create more artistic homes for hermit crabs, so he set out to design miniature shells using a CT scanner and 3D modelling computer software.
"Initially I was concerned that they might not be interested in the plastic shelters I had created. However, one day I witnessed one of my hermit crabs moved into my shelter after he had been torn between a natural seashell and my plastic one. I was pleased with his decision, but also had mixed feelings as he chose a plastic shelter rather than a natural seashell."
