This one is a good one! I really thought I gonna see a new bubble sort variation.
Speaking of Hermit Crabs, I was also blown away by their communal shell exchange process.

Many hermit crabs will come together and work as a team to change shells in hierarchy. If you've never seen it, you are in for a treat.

That was fascinating, thank you for sharing.

I feel like there's something taboo, something indecent about seeing a hermit crab out of its shell.

That one crab was caught with its pants down for a moment.

Just like hermit crabs when a slightly bigger shell is available. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f1dnocPQXDQ#t=1m33s
