Meanwhile at home. My big aquarium had a disaster, and everything died. (A leaky connection sprayed cold tapwater into the sump, gradually replacing all the warm saltwater with cold tapwater). We’ve used this disaster to clean up and start fresh. During that process, I sifted all the sand, and recovered all of these:
Operculum of Snails.
Do a google images search of “snail operculum pendant” to see some very artistic applications of this beautiful shape.
