i see no problem.

Do they look cramped?

Yes. Anyone with eyes can see that that tank is too small for those monsters. Has this site become so PC that people are willing to turn a blind eye to blatently overcrowded / undersized tanks just to avoid conflict?
I thought we were supposed to be promoting good fishkeeping habits here? You wouldn't raise a dog in a closet where he hardly had room to turn around so why would it be okay for fish?

72"x18"x24"

That doesn't look like 18"W. Looks like 24-30"W IMO

dogs arent fish.
as long as the fish are happy and growing well,
i dont think its a problem.
the water quality is obviously good,and the fish and super over overstocked.

the arows themselves look bigger than 18" so the tank can't be 18"W

It may be over crowded, but Im sure knowing John and most hobbyest that know they spent $$$$$ on expensive fish have spend big bucks on Filter systems too. It looks like nice clean water and with no alge build up in the tank, meaning it looks well maintenanced.
I see no prob with a over filtered set up

Or you can ship them back from Canada and put them in my 300
