A while back (2 years ago) I had a pair of ruby matrix crabs. it turned out I had a male and a female. Eventually I noticed the smaller one went to the top of a rock in the aquarium and started a little dance, releasing hundreds of larve into the water. Obvously all the fish in the tank started eating them. I placed the crabs into a new smaller tank and just like clockwork about every 28 days she would release her larve into the water. However I could never keep them alive more than about 6 hours. I was courious if anyone had success in breeding matrix crabs, what to feed them.  If they needed micro alge or rotifers, which I never  got a chance to try. Any suggestions???
