Guarding behavior!

I woke up super early this morning, 5:00AM, to finish up some homework that I didn't get to the night before. The crabs usually get their light turned on around 7:00-7:30AM. So as I was sitting on my couch in the dark, working on my laptop, I heard a lot of "talking" going on in the dark tank. I just had to go over there and see what the fuss what all about! Two of my males, Spree and Hodor, were pushing each other around. It didn't look too violent, so I waited to interfere. Eventually Spree "won?" and started guarding one of my females Rosie, while she ate out of the food dish. Hehe! Hopefully we get some crabby babies going and set up a breeding tank.

Awesome! It's great that you'll be able to try to raise them if you get babies. Subscribing so I don't miss anything.

Thanks! I'm going to do my best! First time here, but I am getting a lot of advice about using a Kreisel tank from a friend who breeds clown fish, so hopefully even if it doesn't work out this time, I can learn and plan for the future.
