Have you ever watched a movie, t.v Show, music video, etc, and a tank appeared on the screen in the background?
Did you pause it and try and guess what all was in the tank? lol
Well this thread's for you.


Name the movie, show, music video, etc.. that it was in, what scene it was in, what was in the tank,
any description would be great, so the rest of us could maybe try and catch it next time or try and remember it.
If you could find the clip on Youtube, or a screenshot, that would be perfect. If not, don't worry.
Even if it was only for a split second, put it up.

Don't remember seeing one? Just keep an eye out and next time you see one, come back to the thread and let us know about it.
 
In the movie, New Jack City, there was a scene where G-Money had become addicted to crack cocaine. He sat there staring at his tank full of large tinfoil barbs, as he sucked on his crack pipe. That scene is forever inscribed in my mind.

bad boys 1 the scene in the club when martin lawerence was fighting in the bathroom(large tank in the wall full of koi) also lethal weapon 2 the scene in the office of the bad guy he had four tanks in the wall i notice large knife fish in one not sure what was in the others..........................only reason i remember both is because all the tanks got broken in both movies and i remember thinking thats a whole lot of water to clean up.
 
In the new season of Top Chef, behind the judges there's always a huge tank that seems WAY too overstocked, and it always bugs me as they swim around crowded as hell behind them.

I remember watching cribs and it was some rapper and before he showed his cars he showed a SW tank in his garage wall that had a baby nurse shark. And another episode of cribs some basketball player had a large SW cylindrical tank in his living room and he swam in it lol. And I think Missy Eliot had a chair/aquarium with goldfish in it

yeah i have noticed this too.... it just appears to be goldfish though and thats about what they are housed in at most LFS...... its gotta be i would guess about a 200 gallon tank. I have seen much worse, but i'm surprised they would even bother since it is just a background behind the judges..... kind of a waste
 
the romantic in me will ALWAYS remember this scene :D

I thought they were dats when I got a closer look, hmmm
 
There is a movie I saw before,I cant remember the title but it had Jack Palance as a villian and in his office,behind his desk,was a large tank with catfish swimming around.....In the Starsky and Hutch remake,SnoopDoggs character had a salt tank behind his desk which contained a really nice HornShark.
