In case you thought reefers were the first to propagate corals and anemones through fragging, pom-pom crabs thought of it long before we did:

I know there are also species of hermit crabs that will attach anemones to their shell. Eventually they grow and find a new shell and rip the anemones off the old shell and make them latch to the new one. It's a n amazing and hilarious thing to watch haha

I just thought the fact that the crabs rip anemones up to propagate them was particularly cool.
