I am sending an order in with a friend and would like to know if 2 pom pom crabs would be compatible with each other in a 1 gal pico or would they fight??

I've got two in my 22 cube. 1 gallon sounds pretty small but if you're going to do it be sure to have lots of hiding places for them.
Be sure to let us know how it works out.
Mine do confront each other every now and then but no contact that I've seen. It's pretty neat to watch them actually because there is one dominant crab that seems to hold onto his turf. They do some pretty neat pom pom waving as well when they get within sight of each other.

A pico is a tank that is usually 3 gal and under. Mine is a 1 gal
As for the crab, not going to get it. The fellow that is placing an order is just ordering dry goods and to shop one live crab is huge bucks, we sometimes get them here at our LFS but they can be anywheres from 20.00-24.00 each. Dear in price these little cuties are.
Thanks for the replies, if I do get one it will be just a single ...
