So i went to the beach the other day and when i was there i picked up some shells that caught my eye. Some with barnacles on, some are muscle shells, other mollusk shells and also parts of a crab carcass.

Is there anything i must do to be able to add them to my tank?

If you are concerned, just gently boil them, then let them dry / cool and in they go!
