The chelipeds aren't really related to the movement of the crayfish itself, unconciously these appendages might move the crayfish, but really the chelipeds are a form of defense and used for food handling, much like the one big claw of the "Fiddler" Crab. INother words, the chelipeds are the two big dangrous looking claws of the crayfish.
