Re: Puffer Songs
I don't sing but regularly find myself talking to the fish. I then swiftly get told off cos I'm interrupting eastenders or some other rubbish lol
It's amazing how easy maintenance is. If done regularly and thoroughly

Re: Puffer Songs
Fat-haka......I hate you 
. Dang song has been stuck in my head since yesterday! 
I have been singing it to my Fangs Puffer...except he does not bury in the sand, he just likes to sit on it and glide about....So I changed the words to, "puffer on the sand".

Re: Puffer Songs
Purplecandle I laughed so hard I cried when I read your post.
Bertie I talk to mine all the time. His mouth movements make it look like we are having a full fledged conversation! I am forever hearing from the other room "who are you talking to? Wait let me guess... The fish!"

A kiss on the hand may be quite continental

Re: Puffer Songs
I cannot carry a tune, but I do talk to my fish routinely. They do not reply SFAIK. A few decades ago, I did have hydrophones that I could put into the tanks. They are not competitors to the great whales...

It's been a long night and I've had a lot of Nyquil.
That being said, I hope some of you are familiar with the Lion King. I decided to parody it for our own purposes.

Re: Puffer Songs
Fishy yawns sound adorable!
I was asked again just last night...
".....are you talking to the fish over there......again?"
Feather gets a little serenade when it's dinner time:
Skinny puff, skinny puff
Really wants some shrimp love
Skinny puff, skinny puff
Whatcha gonna do?
Skinny puff, skinny puff
Wants to be a blimp thug
Skinny puff, skinny puff, I love you!
