They're baaaack.Tanked season two!

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
They quoted me 22k for a 12x4x4 tank not including shipping just the tank. I know material costs more the taller you go but that seemed like a lot Guess they dont have time for the little people anymore.

Seems high to me too. Ive dealt with another large company similar to them and was given good prices/ service
 
We have always enjoyed Holmes, he was a person that inspired us to buy a fixer and know what to look for and fix it right. Although we still have projects around the house, we don't worry about them burning down the house while we wait to fix them.

We starting watching Tanked, but the lack of actual information was disturbing to me. We wondered how many people would see the show and think it's so easy. I did like the one episode where they went back a built those quarantine tanks, and the feeding tube. Some of the others were just odd. The africans in a barrel were ok, but I hate all the fake coral stuff. Wouldn't it have been nice to use holey rock for that, maybe drilled and anchored to eachother for stability, and yet moveable enough for easy cleaning?

I wish they would do a show with people who have crashed their tanks and killed off the fish, and then they go in, fix the tanks, show the people how to care for them right, and do it within an affordable range for the work they did so people know how much fish can be, but still see it's affordable to do. Kind of like the Take Home Chef show where the chef meets people at a supermarket and then helps them find some ingredients and do some shopping, and then shows the cooking process, and then the meal. Not my favorite show, but a well done show - just makes me hungry for food I don't have...
 
The show is on animal planet, while it showed nice tanks and fish i was unimpressed with the show
 
The show was corny and boring. It had a True TV feeling to it production wise. I agree with Lusus, Animal planet should make a fish whisper type show. Show folks having issues with their tanks or a certain type of set up and bring someone in to fix it. Like if someone is struggling with their discus tank they bring in a well know discus expert. Focus on the fish and not the tanks. I shake my head everytime I think of the Beer Keg, Juke Box and Telephone tank ... wait let's not forget the gum ball machine.
 
They have to edit it out of the show so their show fits in the time length.

That's preposterous, everyone knows you can build, decorate, setup, and add water and fish in 43.35 minutes. Sheesh.....duh!!!
