skunk clown sound

[gatorolsen]

I have had a pair of pink skunk clowns for almost 4 yrs the past few days I have heard chirp/drumming sound - I thought it was a frog on a nearby window until tonight

one of my clowns is making this sound - looks almost like it is chattering its teeth - of course my stupid camera battery was dead so no example yet

didn't see this in my clownfish book - anyone else notice this with their pairs?

anyone? cause my husband thinks I am nuts until I can catch this on video.

He said fish ususally produce sound either by grinding false back teeth (he had a fancier name for that which I will never remember) or through their swim bladder

clowns are pretty vocal. I have a pair of maroons that start grunting and chirping everytime the alarms go off. kinda sound like tree frogs

Ive had clarkiis make the clicking type sound at another pair.
