Color choices

This hermit crab peers out from its striped spiral shell, surrounded by tall seaweed and tube coral. Try a warm tan for the shell’s ridges, alternating with a deeper brown stripe for texture. Color the crab’s claws and legs in soft orange, and give the tube coral below a bright pink. Let the seaweed fronds sway in shades of green around the scattered pebbles.

Compare shell and body

Color the spiral shell first, then use a warm orange for the crab’s body and claws.
