Tweezers are best, sometimes they don’t soften fully and open and they’ll kill the plant, just try to crack it open like a clam if it sticks to the leaf but is open just let it be

Update: They all still look like shit. 3 of the 7 had shells that needed to be removed. Doing so didn't seem to change much. The last pic at least has some green trying to open up. ughhhh.

If you ever have trouble getting the shell off get a spray bottle and just mist the top of the shell. A lot of times the shell gets stuck because of low humidity which dries up the thinner layer making it stick to the emerging plant. works 100% of the time for me.

Try to move the light closer, get a shitty lux meter app on your phone and bring it up to a few thousand if you can. Also it’s better to leave seedlings alone as much as possible, they have all the nutrients they need to do what they need to do, other than the stuck seed try not to baby them, I still struggle with it everytime I plant a new one
