Actually, it's called "Tanked". I don't know why they say it is premiering on Aug. 19 - I watched it last night! They built an aquarium inside an old milk delivery truck. Very cool! They did other stuff too, but I won't spoil it for everyone. Definitely worth watching! Supposedly going to be a 6-part series.

I believe Tanked is on again tonight at 10. I watched it last night and found it worth the time.

Tanked is about the ATM company out of vegas. They doing commercial and residential high-end custom acrylic tanks and all that goes with them. If you google ATM aquariums you can find their site.

I watched one episode (the one where they made a fish tank out of NY phone booth.) I was underwhelmed. I thought they all were a bit over-the-top with manufactured drama, especially from the wife who had to go into the "shark tank" to retrieve something left there. I dunno, not my style, I guess . ..

Ol' Ocho Cinco shoulda put away the giant tube of lube (and made the bed) before snapping a pic of his fish tank (and girlfriend)...

It would be AWESOME if there was a behind the scenes show (maybe just on the web) about the more technical aspects of the tanks, set-up and maintenance.

Unfortunately, manufactured reality gets ratings. Discussions about nitrifying bacteria...not so much.

As an aside, I worked HARD to get Discovery (and Animal Planet) at all interested in the ACA convention (just down the street from them). Obviously enough, they weren't.

I don't get it. Why not have the TVs come down in front of the tank when you want to watch (and be hidden when you're not) vs. blocking the tank.

Am I the only one that thinks that couch looks not so comfy?

His crib; not mine :)

YOU CANT SEE THE FISH FOR THE TVS :wacko:
