FOAM??

Mods, I wasn't sure where to post this, so feel free to move it if necessary.


I have a male fiddler crab (I've had him for about 2 months nice and healthy) and he's sitting on his little post rubbing foam all over himself? Can anyone give me an answer as to what he's doing and if I need to worry about anything? Maybe it's a natural behavior but for some reason I couldn't find information anywhere.

Thanks!
