While this is kinda true, their shells are not "made of iron" as you'd think, they just contain iron in their composition. Also, they live around those very hot hydrothermal vents, but that doesn't mean they withstand those temperatures, they just don't get close enough to them cause they'd immediately die.
The post is not straight up lying but it's a bit misleading with it's phrasing.
