Crab Attacking Other Tank Mate

Re: Attacking crab

I came home from work today to the same issue! My one crab was on top of the other, causing the other to retreat far into its shell. He keeps chasing her (not sure of the gender, but we guess), and she has been making a loud noise when he comes after her. NEVER in 5 years that we have had them have ...
