Question about two crabs

ok i was watching dirty jobs tonight on discovery channel ( 100th dirty job) and i decided to pause it and check on my tank well i saw this, two of my crabs are attached?



they kinda look like they are mating. its hard to see in the picture but the one on top is reaching in with a part of its body ( body part located right at or behind the head ) and then the one on the bottom has something sticking out attached to the body part of the one on top.



now the scary thing is the one on top is one that was called a zebra crab?( not sure if thats right or not) and the one on the bottom is a red legged crab..

are they mating or is the one on top eating the other one?
