Is that orange mass on the bottom of my pom pom crab eggs?

I hadn't seen my pom pom crab for a long time so I decided to get another. Is this proof that they are both in there and living quite happily together?

could be?

My pompom was always my favorite invert, even tough I only seen him once a month or so.

Yes, those are eggs. I had a pom once and she released a ton of eggs. I never saw any survivors so I'm assuming they were unfertilized. Great fish food, regardless.

How are these guys with your other livestock? Any issues?

Never saw mine again after I put her in. She released her eggs almost immediately after she went in. All I ever found was a cranial fragment about a month later. . . .
