The Puffer Forum

Does anyone else make up songs to sing to their puffers?

My Fahaka loves to bury himself in the sand so he has a song. *Sung to the tune of Belinda Carlisle's Circle In The Sand"

Puffer in the saaaaand doesn't swim arouunnd
You can't seeee him cus he's in the grouuuuuuunnnndddd *voice cracks here*
Annnnd if you try to find that poof
He'll show you his big tooooooooooooooth

My cattle dog will sometimes howl along too.

awesome song!

I do that to. I can't whistle, so when I need to call the cats I sing.

lol This is a first. Never thought of that.

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

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".

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!"

heard tonight.."quiet..mummy's talking to her fahaka!"

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.

There are plenty of songs I sing to Feather but more on those later. HAKUNA FAHAKA TO ALL OF YOUUUU~

You're stoned, alright...

...I'm much more awake now.
No more Nyquil. O_o

Rotfl I talk to my fish too and ken is always telling me they can't hear me through the glass XD I love those little Toby yawns!!!

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!

I'll have to get a video of her yawning xD
