Meet the Characters!

Main Characters

• Shelldon Clam (voiced by Tabitha St. Germain) is a young shellfish. He lives with his family in a hotel called the Charming Clam Inn. Shelldon loves helping his friends and is great at solving problems.
• Herman (voiced by Richard Ian Cox) is a blue hermit crab. He is super interested in "alien" objects and mysterious "paranormal" events. Herman also has a crush on his classmate, Hurly.
• Connie is a sea snail who comes from a very rich family. Even so, she decided to work at the Charming Clam Inn. She wanted to do more than just rely on her parents' money.

Other Fun Characters

• Dr. Shell (voiced by Lee Tockar) is a very smart, but sometimes a bit scatter-brained, river snail inventor. He has been a guest at the Charming Clam Inn since it opened and has become a permanent resident. Dr. Shell has traveled all over the seas looking for ideas. He cares more about how his inventions help others than about making money.
• Mama Clam (voiced by Ellen Kenndy) is a magnolia mollusk clam. She lives and runs the Charming Clam Inn with her husband and three children. Mama Clam is a calm and steady wife and mother. She doesn't get easily scared by tough times or challenges. She grew up in the busy Shell City, so she is smart and plans carefully. She always seems to know the perfect way to fix a problem. At home, Mama likes to let her husband handle things. But she is also a clever housewife who knows exactly how to get Papa to do what she wants. Mama is not a good cook at all, but she doesn't realize how bad her cooking is. Everyone in the family tries to hide it so they don't hurt her feelings. Her terrible cooking is a running joke in the show.
• Papa Clam (voiced by Colin Murdock) is a muddy-brown mollusk clam. He lives and runs the Charming Clam Inn with his wife and three kids. He is honest, not super bright, and sometimes a bit rough around the edges. He gets easily worried by problems, and his ideas for fixing things are often not very practical.
• Mr. Inkysquid (voiced by Scott McNeil) is a green squid who teaches at the school.
• Mayor Yoka is a snail who is the mayor of Shell Land.
• Hurley is a fancy sea snail. She spends a lot of time thinking about her nails and hair. Sometimes, this makes her forget about her friends.
• Min Min is a pink shellfish who sometimes appears in the show. She has a crush on a classmate named Herman.
