Sign tank is starting to fail?

[SeaWolf95]

First yes I have 2 pistol shrimps in the tank a candycane and tiger, no mantis shrimp that I know of

It seems to happen more at night I hear either a weird Click or a double click . The timing of the clicks
appears to be random as there could be a long delay or short delay. I also hear the sound more at night but sometimes
i hear it during the day but the sound doesnt sound the same.

Its not a RedSea and its a braced tank. The sound always appear to be coming from the top of the tank. I dont see any water
seepage but this clicking sound is worrying a little.

Is there anything near the braces i should be looking for? Thanks

Are you sure it's not the pistol shrimps that you are hearing? They make clicking or snapping sounds. I have one and it's active more at night.

I agree it sounds like the clicking would be the pistol shrimp.

I added a tiny pistol shrimp to my tank maybe a year and a half ago. Haven't seen him since. BUT every once in awhile we will hear a couple clicks coming from the tank, mostly when the lights are down. I'm pretty sure it's him. It's a 55 gallon Aqueon with no problems.

Do you have any snails? When the snails in my tanks are at the corners and try changing directions, their shells will click against the glass. Given I have to be close to the tank but I do hear it.
