matty Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 I hope they have more respect for the animals then those other dip****s! The first time I saw the skate ramp fish tank I quit watching. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pnkrcklives Posted April 11, 2012 Author Share Posted April 11, 2012 I was not a big fan of the last show either. I guess only time will tell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matty Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 It would be cool if this show focused on the equipment and what goes into each build a little more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrazyInside Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 That other show had them in a rush and at the end they were filling the tank up with tap water, adding salt, then bam adding 50 fish lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derbird Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 I won't watch that "Other show" After I saw them fill a tank with hot water, throw in ice, and add fish I was done. It is a cool idea for a show but this hobby takes time and that is not good for TV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DennisW Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 But doing it the right way is boring and only interesting to us fish geeks. Dosen't make for good tv. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trautman Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 Just a heads up: I spoke to Bob Fenner, a wizard of aquariums, about Tanked. The Tanked crew actually does cycle, they dose ammonium, they run tests, etc. etc. What we see as viewers is just a sped up version because people who don't have aquariums typically don't care and consider that stuff boring. Bob was saying that it was silly they didn't at least spend 1 minute talking about it... to ease out minds lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garrett Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 Not only was it a skate ramp tank, but it was an acrylic ramp, probably cant see all the poor sad fish now its so scratched... anyone see on that "other shows" commercials at the very end of it there is a dying clownfish sinking to the bottom, looks like they saw it at the bottom netted it to the top and let it drop back down for the segment. next time you see their commerical right at the end the straight up and down clownfish with labored breathing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gradth Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 So Tanked is not worth watching? I saw the preview for it and got excited. Dont get to see much about aquariums on tv. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smann Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 So Tanked is not worth watching? I saw the preview for it and got excited. Dont get to see much about aquariums on tv. Just for entertainment it's the same as Pawn Stars and all the other reality shows, for aquarium husbandry no lol, If i'm surfing channels and it pops up I'll watch it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
