Die Aquarium-Profis

These guys are AQUARIUM builders, maybe that is why they don't seem to give a damn about the fish and what is becoming of them after they deliver the tank! Some of the tanks are just weird and in bad taste, but that is not entirely their fault - they do what people pay them to do.

I don't watch the show anymore, I just feel very, very sorry for the poor fish. Maybe they could just build their stupid tanks and leave the fish alone, or put some plastic, battery-operated Japanese fish inside.

As for being funny... well, no accounting for taste and for what people think is funny. To me they are just clueless, especially the bald guy. He seems to think of himself as the king of the world.

Bald guy, believe me, you're not.

Tanked is a great show. It's about two aquarium builders named Brett and Wayde and their adventures, struggles, and humor while building. They also like to have fun, such as pranks, jokes, and amusements. The tanks they build and they fish they show are beautiful and amazing. Although the comedy and pranks are sometimes obviously acted or scripted, it's still an amazing show. Sometimes the guys get through some HUGE trouble through building that it seems like they can't fix it (but of course they do. Each customer they have is always surprised, and so am I. I just hope each show keeps up with it's wonderful ideas (except the obvious acting) and it's wonderful tanks. I wish I had their job...

This show neither provides information for aquarists nor that it is in any way sufferable entertainment. It's just as flat as the plexiglas of the fish tanks they sell. When it's on TV I must zap and fight with disgust for the next five minutes.

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👎

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.
