uses for shells

over my vacation to florida we spent quite a few hours at cocoa beach, a lot of which i spent collecting shells. i collected about half a walmart plastic bag. any ideas of what i could do with them?

ive thought about crushing a majority of it and spreading it in my cichlid tank, but im affraid of sharp pieces. ive also thought about saving them for use in a shell dweller tank.

what should i do?

The shells would be great for keeping your pH higher for the cichlids. I don't see why you couldn't just add them whole instead of crushed.
A shell dweller tank would be cool...never had one myself though
