I have the famous clicking sound coming out of my 135g reef. It occurs during the evening and is quite loud. Single clicks mostly, but sometimes I will hear three fainter clikcs in a row.
These clicks have been going on for about 5-6 months now, and as of yet I could not find the culprit. I figured that if it were indeed a Mantis, I would find casualties, but none so far. I have a Sailfin Tang, Kole Tang, Dwarf yellow Angel, Yellow Wrasse, Banded Srimp, Sally Lightfoot, and Emerald Crabs. None have ever gone missing sine I have been hearing the clicks.
I also have a Purple Reef Lobster. Could it be clicking? I thought someone mentioned lobsters clicking in a post a while back, but have done research & can't seem to find references of lobsters clicking.
What do you think? Is it the lobster? DoI indeeed have a mantis or what? Thanks for any insight, TT.
