+==Biography==
+===''Banjo-Kazooie''===
+In his first appearance, ''[[Banjo-Kazooie]]'', Tanktup is a large turtle who appears in [[Bubblegloop Swamp]], where he houses [[Tiptup]] and [[Tiptup Choir|his choir]] inside his shell. Tanktup complains about how his feet are numb and cold. [[Banjo]] and [[Kazooie]] can help him by using the [[Beak Buster]] move in them, causing the feet to retract back inside Tanktup's shell. He then thanks the two and rewards them with a [[Jiggy]] that comes out of his mouth. Once it is collected, the pair can also enter his mouth to find Tiptup and his choir practicing.
