What are these bumble bee shrimp doing?

Are they fighting? Establishing territory? Mating?

What are these guys doing? I thought I had ID'd them as a male and a female so I am wondering if they are fighting, establishing territory, mating? I am really not sure but it is very interesting.

Clearly they’re trying to hug eachother!

Honestly, I think they’re likely just being territorial.

It’s the secret handshake, hug and run away

Must be, it was a cool sight and the lights were off, I love learning about these shrimp and how they behave :)

I forgot to add, I think the one without the isopod could be the one that I added yesterday so he was probably just trying to hug the leader of the pack and got his claws stuck
