Question

I am steamed; I am fried; I am stewed; eaten raw.

I may reveal treasure, when you open my door.

I am prized for my flesh, but my case is used too.

I may improve your performance, but that may not be true.

Some have died for me. I am now farmed.

My treasures were worth more back when they were crude.

Now they are cultivated, not natural or rude.

The first one to taste me was said to be brave,

But he may have been starving, and his life I did save.

So eat and enjoy me, or screw up your face.

What am I?

Can i ask a question? When you say , does it mean the case is used in eating/cooking or is it used elsewhere?

Elsewhere. They can put the shells in a tank or somewhere and smaller animals will attach to the shell providing a home for those small animals.
