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.
 
Must me the bumble bee shrimp in the background that they are fighting over.
BB1 - It's my girl.
BB2 - NO IT'S MY GIRL!
BB1 - Oww.. you stupid shrimp, you always have to take my girl.
BB2 - Pff I am much more stronger than thee.
BB1 - BRING IT ON!!!!
BB2 - SPARTA!!!!

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 :)
