Seaview has rocks with holes in them for your Crays to hide

It is normal. Once a lobster mold, it is vulnerable to become food to others. So keep a lookout, separate them when molding is done.

Give ample hiding space rather. Place some tubes, some driftwood or create gaps between the rocks (separate them)... this can provide hiding space.

Ur tank looks small for these 2 crayfish.

Should create more hiding spaces... You can buy some ready made caves from Seaview under some japanese reptile brand

Make sure you don't put plants inside if you want them intact, the crays will happily eat it all up

I suggest U have 2 "caves" than 1. So both can hide at the same time. Rather than one hide and one in the open.
