A few minutes ago, I heard something I hadn't heard from my aquarium before: a chirping sound. I wondered if this was my equipment or my fish. After further realization, this was my clownfish.
I knew it was my clownfish because an hour before lights off, I was cleaning the glass and the clownfish was attacking my algae magnet like crazy. I figured this is what it was hosting since I had noticed it near it before the lights came on in the morning.
I decided to remove it in hopes that it will consider my anemone. I believe this was a good decision because 1. I have an anemone for it and 2. My Midas blenny (100x more dominant than juvenile clownfish) likes to perch on it during the day and over time this would probably lead to aggression.
Anyways, have you ever heard your clownfish chirp?
 
Like this?

yes exactly. But it's strange. I only have one clownfish, so he must have been angry at the area that the algae scraper typically was
I have a group of clownfish that bunch up in one corner of the tank and make popping noises. They take turns like it's fun
This is where my clownfish was, but it was only one.
 
Don’t currently have any clownfish, but my bangaii cardinal grunts somewhat loudly (not anywhere near as loud as this FW stonefish I had many years ago).
No but my Purple Tang whistles Dixie
Interesting. I've never heard my other fish make any sounds ever before. The water must mute a lot of the sounds produced because I barely heard the clownfish chirp
 
No sounds yet, but as I have been watching for tankmate pairs, I noticed sometimes the male clown, a pajama cardinal, and the Scopas tang hang out like a school if they aren’t schooling separately. They are the nosy bunch, checking out the new big Goni. I think the clowns might move in, they are looking at it like it’s real estate.
