Mine tend to do something similar with food near the bottom of the tank when they don't want to get too close to the sand. They just blow a quick puff of water at the substrate, and it kicks the worm up enough for them to grab it. I'm not sure that they've done that right on the surface, but they are courageous enough to come up and grab blood worms right out of the spoon I feed them with, and occasionally end up making a sound similar to the clicking clown loaches make while feeding.

No, but mine splash water in my face competing for food when I feed them. My wife laughs at me.
