Which fish is trying to talk to me.

Yes, some of you are going to think that I'm crazy and don't worry, you're not alone. For months whenever I get ready to feed my fish, I hear this noise that I can only describe as being two syllables similar to the noise that a hippo makes. I am finally convinced that it is coming from one of my fish. I am wondering if anyone else has had a similar experience.
The possible offenders include: Adult Queen Angle, Emperor Angle, Copperband, Powder Blue and Bristlenose Tangs. It has to be one of them as there is no other explanation

My guess is the Emperor if it’s an adult. I can hear mine from across the room.

I’d guess the emperor angel assuming it’s a fairly large size.
Also, yes! My wrasses will spit water at me for food. And the pencils will make a snapping noise with their beak against the rocks quite happily.

what kind of wrasses spit water at you? Probably ones that are too big to go in my tank

My pencils love to do it! They’re suitable for a tank that’s 3 foot long too!

Imperator angels will make grunting noises.

Emperor Angel, 100%.

I could hear mine half-way across the house. (Someone once referred to it as the sound of "falling rocks"-- which I thought was accurate).
