I checked the item descriptions, and they all seem to be the same. I paid $2 more for the one pack than the 5" hut, possibly because I had already purchased the one pack. My two hermit crabs were immediately attracted to it. They snooze next to each other, as if they were best friends.
It does not, in fact. For my hermit crabs, I use them in a terrarium.
I'm confident that snails will be unharmed. Simply clean it before giving it to your snails. I used it for a baby turtle and it worked perfectly.
My aquatic frogs live in a similar hut (the one with one rather than two openings). My quite strong frogs haven't been able to flip it over (I've had to remove a lot of decorations that they did knock over so they wouldn't get stuck underneath them). They like it, but it isn't big enough for both frogs at the same time, so I'll have to get another one;

It's big enough for a medium-sized shell hurmit crab to get in and out of. Our hermit crabs, Messy and Clark, were quick to take to it. I would buy from this seller again because of the promptness with which it was delivered.
My crab seemed to like his new hiding place and would spend most of his time there; however, after a few days, I noticed a smell. It smelled rotten when I got back for the day. The odor came from the hut, which I investigated. We had to tow the hut away due to the foul odor. Because the crab seemed to enjoy it so much, I'll be looking for another hideaway, but this time made of a different material to reduce the odor.
A large number of crabs can be accommodated in a small space. It's a well-constructed hut. The fact that it has openings on both sides appeals to my crabs. They'll crawl out the back and hide in the moss behind the hut, or they'll hide underneath the hut.
It's impossible to go anywhere without a hut. This will be ideal if you have a small hermit crab. It takes up very little room in a tank or cage. My guy, however, is a little too big for the opening, and he became stuck. I'm looking for one that's a little bigger. But I'm keeping it in his tank; I pushed it down into the sand so he can climb all over it now.
The image's height comparison is completely different from the actual product; I realize there were dimensions listed in the description and that I should've looked more closely, but that doesn't excuse the image's distortion. I have two hermits, one small and the other enormous. The tiniest one, which is quite small, was unable to fit into the hut. I was able to accommodate both of them by creating a pit-like area with the hut elevated and the pit below it.
It's a big hit with the crabs! They're speechless, to put it bluntly. It's not just a hangout spot for them; it's also where they call home. And there's not much activity unless we evict them for a few minutes, at which point they'll go for a walk, swim, and eat something. A Hermit Crab favorite, without a doubt.
Not at all what I had anticipated. It appeals to my crab, but not as much as his previous home. When attempting to climb, he slides off of it. If I don't ventilate the tank, it becomes moldy as well. I try to keep it humid so I don't like to open the windows too much. But he comes in here to hide, and his name is Phil Lesh, named after a Grateful Dead member.
Because our crab's previous hut was too small, I purchased this one for him. It says 3*5, and that is correct. It's 3 inches wide and 5 inches long, though. It's only a few inches deep. When it's laying on the sand, he can't even fit in the opening; they need to be more rounded so that the crab and its shell can fit under it neatly.
