Clicking sounds
My Yo Yo's were in full tune tonight while they were eating. I'm curious to know if all loaches do that or just certain species of loach. Is this sound made by the gill plates? Or something that they are sending out. I didn't hear anything from the clowns but they weren't really eating from the wafer.
I've only heard something similar in plakats when they eat.

Khulis don't...I think. I never heard anything from my schisturas, even when they topfeed as they do occassionally.I'm curious to know if all loaches do that or just certain species of loach.
But most "standard botias" do, and so do some related non-loach species.
Clowns and Polka-Dots do, but, Yoyo's seem to do it much more and louder too. With my tanks I started hearing the clicks when they were about 2.5", and Polka-Dots at about 2"; but this may have to do with noisy filter in the tank.

There was recently a discussion on noise production on another forum. One thing that came from that was this:

Don't know wazzup. I put these links on another forum and there they all work perfectly. I pasted them over. Just went back and checked. They still work here. Tried manually typing in the URLs and deleting my pasted versions. STILL won't work. I hate computers

I was trying to redo all that post but my server went offline for ages. Let's try and do what I was in the middle of before (lost it all when the thing crapped out).
