They come out to feed during high tide on various organisms such as bivalves, fish and, to a lesser extent, macroalgae. They are excellent swimmers, largely due to a pair of flattened legs that resemble paddles. However, in contrast to another portunid crab (&#039;&#039;[[Scylla serrata]]&#039;&#039;), they cannot survive for long periods out of the water.</div>
