Nothing too exciting here, but last night I heard some knocking on my tanks
glass and found these 2 guys (phimochirus operculatas) having a row
about something. These guys have big white claws that seal themselves
in when they are in their shell. I have seen them do this a few times....they have been together
for 4 months so they seem to work it out in the end.

Anyway,
Here a short video I shot

Thanks,
Mike
