Zoas on hermit shell?

[lespaul339]

Here's something I've been thinking about doing. Catch one of my bigger hermits and glue a bunch of different colored zoa polyps to his shell. Anyone ever done this? Just thought it might look cool to have a hermit running around with coral on his shell. I think the only downside is he might scrape them when he tries to squeeze into a tight crevice. Which is no big deal to me. What do you all think?

if he touches any other corals they may die or get injured

i glued polyps to all my snail shells last year , at first i thought they wouldn't last as they spend alot of time in the dark and under things but sure enough they are running around with shells full of polyps still today

I think I might give it a shot. I won't glue any super expensive show zoas on him, but something cheaper that I have a lot of.
