Tanked

Contrived and fake. It's embarrassing how obviously staged many of the 'crazy' situations the guys find themselves in are. A toddler might believe the plotlines, but that's it. Adding to that, every 30 seconds you hear a new circus / carnival / looney tunes-type ditty playing in the background to 'match' the show's goofy feel. I picture a guy tapping random buttons on a synthesizer. It's maddening.

Most importantly, if this company truly loved fish, the show wouldn't be like this. The insanely fast aquarium setups are undoubtedly killing most if not all of the fish they show.

I was watching a episode where they made photo both aquirm. And they put a axolotl in the fresh water tank with no hidding spots on grave and the worst with other fish. If you know anything about axolotls you would know this is a big no👎

Caught about 10 minutes of this show and can smell garbage right away. It's so fake and contrived. These people aren't really the most convincing actors. It all just seems so fake! I love fish a lot and this just doesn't seem right. How is this a show? I could have my own show at this point.

The brothers were so successful, the big guy divorced and moved out of Vegas, while the bald guy sold the business and now runs a pizza place.

I still pass by the ATM shop but I've heard it's no longer making aquariums. They removed the "home of Tanked" signage.

I never cared for the show, as Bret and Wade annoyed the heck out of me. While the end products looked good, I couldn't help but think the tanks were nothing more than props for the show. As many have said, there's no followups to the fish. Reports are many had died shortly after construction of the tanks. Sad.

And since I live here in Vegas, I've visited the casinos where tanks were made, and many are long gone now. Makes you wonder....

I don't really care about the acting because the outcome is pretty amazing! I grew up with tanks and I love the process which is what you are able to do. Then at the end you see the final product!!

I also like seeing who wants the tanks and how much involved they are 😄. The information about the fish is great to learn, especially when they go to the fish shop. Learning where they are from and if they are school or must be single fish. Additionally I love the fish facts!! Usually either my husband or I get it right. He can't stand the acting but still watches it too, just like me. If you love fish this show is for you.
