Obviously you are not finished with the shell yet, sew all the parts together as shown in the drawing below. When you have done that, Now you have to crochet around the edge with SC, but in the spots 2parts of the shell meet, you have to make a HDC. Also you have to make some DC where his ‘neck’ will be. Use the same drawing below to see what goes where.

Assembling

Whenever I start sewing a Amigurumi together, I like to use sewing pins to position all parts first. This way I can move it easily around until I am happy with how it looks. After I will sew it on.

Easiest is to sew on his shell first. This way you know exactly where the flippers will go. The front flippers slightly in front of his shell and his back flippers where 2 parts of his shell meet. You can definitely do however you love it best, though. Then cut some eyes out of felt and glue those on. After I painted on the spots on his head with acrylic paint. (If you heat set the paint you can wash it as well). Last I made his mouth and eyebrows with some embroidery and he was already finished.
