Original subtitles

Wayde: On this episode of "Tanked"...

It's like the fishtine chapel.

When would you need The cross by?

Wayde: put my goggles on. I look out, and there's A huge crowd.

I start to panic a little bit.

She wants to build him A beer-keg aquarium.

No one has ever Done that before.

Do you realize how [bleep] Hard that's gonna be to form?

[ glass shatters ]

Oh, man. Tell me that wasn't the tank.

All: 1, 2, 3!

[ cheers and applause ]

Brett: I'm brett raymer.

Wayde: and I'm wayde king.

We're two new yorkers Who moved to las vegas

To follow our dreams...

To create underwater worlds Like no one's ever seen.

We build aquariums.

We're the number-one Aquarium builders in the world.

It's a family business, For sure.

[ indistinct shouting ]

I was forced Into this relationship.

I married brett's sister.

Brett: And my dad runs operations.

We call him "The general."

[ laughs ]

We may fight, But somehow we make it work.

If you can dream it, We can build it.

[ telephone ringing ]

Man: hello? Hello, pastor?

It's wayde and brett. How are you?

That's great.

Brett: we just finished A 57,000-gallon aquarium

For a megachurch in dallas.

This job needed A lot of pre-planning

Before it even started.

The church's motto is,

"Follow me, and I will Make you fishers of men."

Pastor rush -- He literally had the church

Built around the aquarium.

This job was huge.

It took 50 guys to build it And 2 years to complete.

No, we're here.

We're just trying To figure out...

So, pastor, when would you Need the cross by?

[ chuckles ]

[ chuckles ]

I don't think It's gonna be a problem.

Wayde can build anything.

Our goal is always To make the customer happy.

If pastor rush wants a cross Done in four days,

Four days, After a two-year project --

Not a problem.

We will take care of you, Whatever we have to do to Make it work for you.

How about wayde and I Come personally,

Deliver it, And we install it?

All right, sir. We'll definitely Get it done for you.

We know god's On our side.

[ laughter ]

If we only have four days,

The guys got to start building The cross right away.

Yo. What's happening?

We got another big project For you guys.

We got a request from pastor To do a coral cross.

You want it brand-new, or do You want it rotted-looking,

Like it's been underwater For a long time?

Not so brand-new, But maybe a little life to it.

Brett: to make this cross, We first build a wooden frame.

We cover it with epoxy To waterproof the wood

And to give it a weathered look.

Once that's dry, We can start painting it

Then cover it In manufactured coral,

Which is modeled After real coral.

Placing the coral on the cross To make it look natural

Is a very artistic process.

This needs to get finished And shipped out

In order for us To get it there on time.

[ knock on door ]

You guys have a second? Yeah, come on in. Sit down.

So, I just got off the phone With eric palacios.

Yep.

He wants to get A shark tank.

So, because he's An aggressive lawyer,

He wants to show his clients He's like a shark, right?

We've been dealing with this Client for over six months,

Trying to figure out What he wants,

And he's been teetering Back and forth.

I'm glad he finally Made a decision.

So, I need you guys to come Down there and check it all out.

Today? Yeah.

What else do you guys Have going on this week?

We got a lot going on. We do. We're really busy.

Rickie rush, The pastor from dallas,

The church tank -- he wants This huge 5-foot cross.

And we only have Four days.

And then we got to go To jersey

And meet with a client of ours That wants to

Buy her fiancé an aquarium As a wedding gift.

He's a big fish buff.

So, basically, you two are gonna Be all over the board again?

Like always.

[ sighs ]

So, we're on our way over To eric's new law firm,

And the place Is still under construction.

But before they open the doors For business,

They want us to install A killer tank.

This is The reception area,

And this is going to be The receptionist desk,

Where we want the aquarium To be right here.

Everybody's got a rectangular Aquarium against a wall.

I have never seen a receptionist Desk that's an aquarium.

A tank for a front desk? That's pretty cool.

We haven't done Anything like that before.

You want something That's gonna be, like,

When they walk in, like, Instantaneously gonna hit them.

You know, people are In an attorney's office,

They're stressed out.

The fish tank is gonna Just let them relax.

Sure. No, I completely understand.

To have some sharks. Gotcha.

Lawyers are compared to sharks All the time.

Maybe there's a negative Connotation to that.

I always saw it As something positive.

If you're going to somebody To help you,

You want guy that's gonna Fight the hardest for you

And get you the results That you want.

I'm gonna have Two receptionists.

They'll be Behind the aquarium,

Hopefully about 8 inches Or a foot lower

Than the height of the top Of the aquarium.

We can lift this up And see

Where we think It'll look good.

If you hold it Up to 4 feet,

The aquarium itself We'll probably have to sit it

On, like, A 12-inch base.

And this whole piece Is gonna be grounded?

Look who'swe can do that. Getting fancy.

Wayde: The trick to this is not only to Make it a functional aquarium,

But also to make it a functional Desk for their office.

Brett: so, wayde and I Are here in dallas

To install the custom Coral cross that we've built

For the aquarium In the huge megachurch.

I wish that every ministry could Afford to, in some way, put --

Even if it's just a fish bowl In their lobbies,

To represent how fish come From so many different species,

But they all have to live In the same water.

All of us come From so many places,

And we all eventually have to Live in the same world.

That's what I really wish that Everyone would get from this.

Brett: Seeing this tank in person again

Reminds me why I love it so much.

Not only is it beautiful, It's huge.

I'm talking 57,000 gallons, 70 feet long, 10-foot wide,

18 feet tall, and over 600 fish.

The two years it took to Complete was totally worth it.

It's like "The fishtine chapel."

Pressure's on, because hundreds Of people are showing up

For the dedication ceremony.

Wayde: stephen. Stephen: hey, wayde.

Wayde: This tank is so large,

They got a marine biologist On staff at all times

To check the water chemistry and Make sure the fish are healthy.

So, what's happening?

Well, as far as the fish Are concerned,

They're settling down A little bit

Now that we've had them In the tank for a few days.

We have blue tangs, Nurse sharks, french grunts.

You want to check out The rest of what we Got going on?

Okay, so this is one of our Smaller quarantine racks.

Wayde: you're getting All the fish in,

And then, once they're here and They're doing well, no diseases,

They're going Into the bigger tank.

Absolutely. Beautiful.

Wow. Check out that stingray.

She's friendly, Isn't she?

She's hungry. Like somebody else I know.

Yeah. [ chuckles ]

We're gonna put the stingray On exhibit.

She's ready to go.

She's happy now. She's in the big house.

Oh, yeah.

The cross is here. Hey.

Stephen: I think pastor rush Is gonna love that.

You think he's Gonna like that?

I think he's Gonna love it.

Man, That thing looks amazing.

All right, so let's get This thing in there.

So, wayde will be diving This tank to install the cross

So I can be down with the pastor For the ceremony.

Here we go. The leotards are coming out.

Is that gonna fit you?

I love seeing wayde Get in a wet suit. It makes me laugh.

You gonna Watch me change?

Inhale on 3.

[ inhales deeply ]

[ laughs ]

It's like a seal, But not a navy s.E.A.L.

And there she blows. [ laughs ]

Lordy lord. Ugh!

Oh, my god.

[ grunting ]

I can't breathe.

[ grunts ] Looking good!

[ rhythmic clapping ]

The congregation's walking in, And I get the word --

It's showtime.

And installing the cross Is the main event.

* praising his name, jesus

Wayde: I get in the water, Put my goggles on,

I look out, And there's a huge crowd.

The choir's there. They're singing.

Everybody's clapping And jumping up and down.

I start to panic a little bit.

* praising his name, jesus

All right, congregation.

[ cheers and applause ]

Today, we're gonna dedicate This aquarium

As a symbol of our labor To our heavenly father.

How about that?

[ cheers and applause ]

We're really happy to be part Of this historic day.

For my partner and myself And our atm family,

We just want to say Thank you very much.

Everybody say "Amen."

Amen. Amen. Amen.Amen.

On the count of 3! 1, 2, 3!

All: Lower the cross.

[ cheers and applause ]

Brett: we put the wooden cross Into the tank,

And it ain't sinking To the bottom.

We bring it to the bottom,

And I see it starting to float Up to the top of the tank again.

I don't know what to do.

I'm flipping. I'm tumbling. I'm losing my breath.

This is the worst-case scenario. I'm so aggravated.

This is a nightmare.

Brett: Coming up on "Tanked"...

I think we need Something extra.

I think we're gonna Make bubblers.

You're, like, Giving her two more tanks?

But I had a vision, and I think We need to make it happen.

[ sighs ]

Brett: so, wayde and I Are here in dallas

To install the custom Coral cross that we built

For the aquarium In the huge megachurch.

Wayde: so, we're putting The cross in the tank,

And we couldn't even get it All the way down to the bottom.

At this point, I'm starting to freak out.

I'm in front Of hundreds of people.

They're expecting this cross To go to the bottom of the tank.

I can't get it there. This is a nightmare.

I'm looking at the cross,

And I realize there's Air trapped inside it.

[ scoffs ] No wonder it wouldn't go down.

We tipped the cross To let the air escape,

And it went Straight to the bottom.

[ rhythmic clapping ]

[ cheers and applause ]

After two years, the aquarium At the church is finally done.

Rickie: I'm extremely ecstatic.

The cross was that missing Element that symbolizes

That whole unity Of it all coming together.

It becomes real now,

And that's where The faith kicks in.

Today, we've done god's work.

We head back to vegas to get Working on the shark tank.

The first thing we have to do

Is actually make the front panel Of the tank,

And this is curved.

All the acrylic comes in In flat sheets,

So we have to make a mold, Put the acrylic on this mold,

Put it into the oven.

It goes in at 300 degrees For 12 hours,

And it melts to that radius.

When it comes out, The surface is all messed up.

Once we sand and polish it,

This acrylic's gonna have Better quality than glass.

Glass is 76% clear. Acrylic is 97% clear.

But there's a few things We still need to talk about.

What are you guys Doing?

Brainstorming.

Hey, first of all, You can't brainstorm

When the brains Are right here.

You need brains To be right there.

How you gonnabrainstorm Really?

Yeah, really.

Oh, god.

Here's what we got so far.

The reception desk is gonna be A 400-gallon shark tank

That'll have to be strong enough

To support a 450-pound slab Of granite.

When you're putting that much Weight on top of an aquarium,

It could be a challenge.

Since the granite's Over 450 pounds,

We beefed up the steel frame

By adding some extra supports Underneath it.

So, the interior theming, Right?

We're gonna do the gavel.

We're gonna do Those scales of justice.

We're gonna have a coral insert Up against the back wall.

And we're gonna add a bunch Of different sharks in there.

I think it looks good. I like that idea. I like that.

I think we need Something extra.

What I'm thinking is, you know How he's got those columns

That are like 15-inches On each side?

I think we're gonna Make bubblers.

Bubblers? Yeah, like pillars With bubbles in them.

I don't know.

It's gonna represent The pillars of justice --

Like, you walk into The judge's chambers...

There's a couple of pillars Right next to it.

And I just think that area Looks too plain,

And it's not gonna really Set this thing off.

Brett: we'll have Recycling pumps at the bottom

That'll create bubbles

And blue l.E.D. Lights On the top for color.

These tanks won't have Any fish in them,

Which means no extra maintenance

And no extra cost To the customer.

Hell, I love the idea so much, We're gonna eat the cost.

And in the long run,

I think it's gonna bring us Some future business.

You're, like, Giving her two more tanks?

But, honestly, I had a vision,

And I think we need to Make it happen.

[ sighs ]

That's my vision. Make it happen.

I know you can. I'll see you later.

Once again, Brett's throwing around money.

Now it's on.

Brett is always promising The client whatever they want,

Not even thinking about money,

So I decided to play a prank

To see how important Money is to him.

What better way to test him? Fake lotto tickets.

While I'm at it, I'm gonna try To get heather, too.

I'm gonna play a prank, But I need your help.

I got these fake Lotto tickets.

What do you mean, Fake?

You scratch them off, And you win, no matter what.

[ laughs ]

So, I gave them to the general So it would be more believable

That he handed them out Instead of me.

So, we'll see what happens.

Hey, honey.

I just went to lunch with The largest trucking company,

And he gave me These scratch cards.

You know, Whichever one you want.

It's like A lottery ticket.

Just take any one That you want.

Okay, good luck.

So, he had these lotto cards Or something like that.

So, I'm gonna give one to you. I'm gonna give one to wayde.

So, basically, you know...

[ clock ticking ]

I'm dying for them to Scratch off their lotto tickets,

And, of course, it's the first Time they're working all day.

All right, bye.

Jackpot!

Hey, so let me ask you A question.

What?What does that say Right there?

"Match three alike And win that amount."

Holy [bleep]

I won $10,000.

Wow!

Oh, my god.

I won $10,000.

Oh, my god.

I'll call that dude. I'll find out how we cash up.

Oh, wow. All right, I'll call him up.

He's such a dummy.

Hey, I scratched off That ticket. I won $10,000.

Hey. I picked one Of the lotto tickets out.

I just scratched it off And won 10 grand.

$10,000, baby.

Atm in the house.

$10,000, baby.

Wayde: He's running around,

He's telling everybody He won lotto.

Scratch off -- "I won 10 grand."

Yeah. [ laughs ]

Wait till heather wins. [ laughs ]

You like that, right?

Everything I touch, baby, Like gold.

So, how fast You get cash?

"Odds of winning -- Zero in 10,000."

The general: wow.

Supposed to say "1 in 10,000," Brett, not "Zero in 10,000."

Any ofyou win.Bols match, Heather: any?

There's one "$10,000." There's another.

Oh, my god. [ laughs ]

Okay.

Oh, come on, One more.

Mine was right there On the bottom one, right there.

Was it? Yep.

That's got to be, Right?

That can't be true.

That can't be.

Someone's got to be lying. You guys are lying.

Don't tell me that. I swear to god.

Don't tell me that. Really?

Are you lying?

This is the largest Trucking company -- I just called the guy.

Look, I just won $10,000, also!

They couldn't even put Two and two together.

What's the odds of two people In one office

Winning two $10,000 tickets?

I just won $10,000!

Oh, my god. [ laughs ]

I just called the guy.The guy gave me.. Duh!

I got one more to go. [ laughs ]

Oh, I gave you two?

Wayde gave me his.

Wayde, There's one more.

No. I don't believe it.

Now you're Full of [bleep]

Full of crap.

Unbelievable. [ snickering ]

[ laughter ]

Wayde's in the other room, Laughing. My dad's laughing.

Everybody thinks they're Real funny guys around here.

What does it say?

"Valid only In your dreams."

[ laughter ]

You can bet on it that Someone's gonna pay for It, one way or another.

The odds on that Are really good.

Wayde: today, we have A new client in new jersey

Flying us out to meet her.

Hi. How are you? I'm erin. Nice to meet you.

She wants to surprise her fiancé With a one-of-a-kind tank.

So, This is the basement

That we've kind of turned Into john's man cave.

Right there. You like that?

He's a big beer fan.

When I had bought the townhouse, We had just started dating.

So, now that we're Getting married

And we moved in Together,

I'm kind of giving him Free rein down there.

Wayde: this is the the first Time I've heard of a man cave.

Iof a man cave.D I have.

Sports guys Have man caves.

Sports guys sit around And just watch tv.

I'm working. They're just lazy.

You're just not a man.

Erin: you know, the wedding's All about the girl.

I wanted to do a nice gift For him, you know?

And he's a big fish fan,

So I thought If I could do some kind

Of really cool fish tank He could put down here,

It would make it a Little bit more complete In the man cave for him.

You need to find a girl Like that, brett.

Absolutely. I need to Just find a girl in general.

In college, he had A really big fish tank

And had all sorts Of unique fish,

But when he moved, He had to get rid of it.

So, I'd like to get him Back into that again.

We definitely got to make Something that's gonna be Worthy of a man cave.

And you know what? I got a great idea.

He's obviously A big beer drinker, right?

Yeah. Yeah.

What about A keg aquarium?

Wow.

I'm not talking About the fish

Swimming around in beer Or anything.

Wayde: That's a great idea.

What's a man cave all about? Sports and beer.

I think it's fantastic.

It'll fit right in, and if You guys can pool pull it off,

He'll just be So excited with that.

I think that would be Perfect for him.

So, we didn't ask An important question --

Freshwater Or saltwater?

Definitely want to stick With the freshwater fish.

He would know the best. Okay, cool.

Freshwater tanks Are great for a home.

They don't require as much time And all the costly chemicals

That keep a saltwater tank Thriving.

We'll actually come up With some sketches,

And then I'll e-mail them Over to you,

And then, if you like it, Just sign off on it,

And we'll Move forward.

So, after hearing about This man cave, I'm interested.

So, heather, I want a man cave.

I loved brett's idea For the keg tank so much,

I had some kegs delivered To the shop

So we can start The building process.

What the hell is that? Hey!

Party!

Are we having A party?

Brett: so, this guy's Getting married.

He is moving Into her house,

And she gave him the basement As a man cave.

Man cave!

Who needs a man cave?

Men!

Wayde, don't get any ideas.

Robbie: Let's get past this.

What exactly are we Supposed to be doing?

I got a few kegs, and we Got to make a tank out of it.

Exactly.

I was possibly thinking, If we take the kegs and Keep them together,

You know, maybe offset one

And then possibly with one On top of the other and This be the tank.

So, is this Gonna be functional?

Is it gonna Have a tap on it?

No, I think -- Hey, maybe.

I might be able To do that.

Heather: What, the keg?

Well, what I can do Is possibly make a little one

Inside this one

And actually come up and Make it fully functional, too.

Brett: yeah, we might be able To do something like that.

That'd be cool, At least.

I'll give her an e-mail, Send it off,

And I'll get the approval, And we'll take it from there.

Let's go back To our cave.

So, here is What we're proposing.

We'll use four real kegs.

Three kegs we will create a base

That will hold the plumbing And pony keg.

The fourth will sit on top And hold the actual aquarium.

In the center will be a custom Sports-theme coral insert

To add color.

And, finally, to make this A fully functional keg,

We'll run the tap Through the base

And out the bottom of the tank.

Overall, this is a touchdown For the man cave.

Coming up on "Tanked"...

So, what do you think?

What are those things On the sides?

Well, you know, I had this vision.

Wow.

Wayde: we walk out to the shop, I see redneck working on,

You know, the keg tank For the man cave,

But something Just didn't feel right.

It looked too tiny For a man cave.

We really got to change this.

I'm not liking it, Dude.

Why?

Just not manly enough.

But it's not Finished yet.

Like a little kid Goldfish tank.

It's small.

Look what I brought in. Check this out.

I wasn't sure about the size Of the original design.

I remember the mob-themed tank Had these huge barrels

That we can mimic To really amp it up.

That's manly. Look at the size of that.

Look at the curve On that thing.

No one has ever Done that before.

A shaped-like-a-barrel Acrylic tank?

I've never seen it.

Are you nuts?

That's for The man cave!

I understand what You're going with that,

But do you realize how [bleep] Hard that's gonna be to form?

Yep.

I know this is gonna be A really hard build.

I'm starting to understand brett A lot more right now.

When you have a vision, You just want to make it happen.

Give it to him, red. I mean, really.

Hey, you can do it.

Redneck, you can do anything, Though. We know that.

Well, That's beside the point.

Dude, check this out. This is for the man cave.

Oh, easy, hammer. Look at that.

That's a tank!

[ laughs ]

The crew was working hard On the legal inserts

For the shark-tank desk.

Once the mold is set On the scales of justice,

We use a sander to give it The distressed look.

Then we paint it With an acrylic base paint.

The same process is used For the law book,

And it's moving along Pretty smoothly,

But I can't say the same For the keg tank.

You have a radius this way, And you have a radius this way.

That's called A compound bow.

It's very, very hard to get a Big piece out of a compound bow,

So we have to do multiple pieces To get this shape.

So we had to make a mold That's right behind you.

The tricky part with that is, Is lining these seams up.

It's very hard to do.

Wayde: we use a solvent to bond The pieces of acrylic together.

It forms a waterproof seal.

Brett: come on. Bring over The real man-cave tank.

Oh, boy. Here we go again.

There we go.

That's man cave, Baby.

I got to be honest With you guys.

This tank Is really cool.

Isn't it?

It the only one In the world.

I never seen one In a barrel shape before.

Keep up the good work.

Man cave.

Brett: so, now that we got Some work out of the way,

It is time to have a little fun At wayde's expense.

So, here we go.

I get pranked by wayde So many times,

And it's annoying, So today's my day to shine.

So what I did is I set up A fake lunch meeting,

And I bought a bunch Of hot sauce.

I'm talking about Hot sauce from hell,

Devil's revenge, Beyond hell,

Spontaneous combustion, Ass-blaster hot sauce.

I'm gonna spice up wayde's Spicy chicken sandwich.

And then, after I spice up His chicken sandwich,

I'm gonna spice up his drink.

He's gonna get the heat From the drink

And the heat from the thing, And he's just gonna be on fire.

What's going on?

That's why I'm so fat All the time. You feed me.

You don't stop. Come on, guy. Your boy takes care of you.

Look at that. Monster rings.

Got you A spicy chicken sandwich.

Got you a drink.

So, I went to a meeting today About the --

How many burgers Did you get?

I got two. Well, I got to Give one to my dad.

I got one.

I got a chicken sandwich, As well.

Are we all set? Yeah, we're all set.

We got the exterior, Which is looking good.

So...

My only concern With the tank is...

That, uh...

Um...

Is it good?

Yeah. It's just a little hot.

It spicy? A little bit.

[ cellphone ringing ]

Yeah, mine's A little spicy, too.

Hello?

Uh-huh.

Uh-huh.

Yeah. Ma, I'm at work. I'm in a meeting with brett.

Can I call you In a little bit?

All right.

Dude, this [bleep] Is hot.

Dude, Mine's spicy, too, man.

Soda cools it down A little bit.

Spicy, bro.

Ooh. I didn't even realize It was that spicy.

[ coughing ]

What the...

Spicy?

I got -- I got it.

What's the matter? [ laughs ]

Something wrong?

Wrong? Is it hot?

That [bleep] Hot.

I don't think it's the soda. I think it's the sandwich.

Dude -- Take another sip.

No way. Mine ain't that hot.

What you're doing. What do you mean?

You're doing. Is it hot?

I might throw up, It's so hot.

I'll get you.

You want to play pranks All day, huh?

Dude, I'll get you. Payback's a what?

If you need a fire extinguisher Or something to cool you off,

Just let me know, Man.

I'll be in my office.

Yeah, I'd run if I was you.

If it gets any hotter, I'm gonna hurt you.

You know what paris hilton Used to say?

"That's hot." [ laughs ]

Now it's on. Now he's in trouble.

Brett: and now it's time For a quick fish fact.

We know men love Their man caves,

But what aquatic species has to Have a cave in their tank?

Find out after the break.

Brett: snowflake moray eels Require a lot of hiding places,

Such as caves or pvc pipes, To feel secure.

It is possible to keep more than One eel in the same aquarium,

As long as the tank Isn't too small

And they each have Their own cave,

Though sometimes they all Wind up using the same cave.

So, there you have it. Even eels need their man caves.

So, we're flying back To new jersey,

Because it's finally time To install the keg tank.

Let's rock 'n' roll, Boys.

We only have three hours To install the tank,

Which is a complete surprise For erin's fiancé, john.

The keg goes Underneath this one?

Yep.

And the filters are going Underneath that one.

Wayde: This fully functional keg tank

Is the perfect size For the man cave.

This tank is 3 feet tall, 2 1/2 feet wide,

It's approximately 89 gallons,

And when it's all said and done, It's about 720 pounds.

Before we put our gravel In the tank,

We like to rinse it with a hose To remove the dust,

The particles, and any other Debris that's on it

Until the water runs clear.

You don't want to use Any other cleaner,

'cause leftover residue Will harm the fish.

Wayde: while brett's outside Cleaning the gravel,

Redneck and I are gonna be Installing the tap.

First, we drill the hole In the steel base,

Then we'll run the line Up through the base

That'll eventually get Tied into the pony keg.

We'll fit the tap in the hole And secure it with lug nuts.

I got the pony keg.

Get that sucker In there.

Look at that. Fits like a glove.

I'll get this tap on.

All we have to do now Is get these fish in.

Hey, guys, Is it almost done?

He's gonna be here Any second?

We're putting the finishing Touches on right now.

Awesome. Thank you.

First one -- lemon jake peacock. Beautiful fish.

I love these Freshwater fish.

For this tank,

We decided to get All male cichlids from africa.

Cichlids are one of the largest Vertebrate families

And new species Are found annually

In fresh bodies of water All around the world.

Yellow blaze.

Oh, he's the mack daddy. He's the big one.

That's it.They're all finding Their homes.

Wayde: Most pet stores don't carry Freshwater fish this large.

You have to custom-order them From the supply house.

Hey, I hear the floors Creaking upstairs.

[ whispering Indistinctly ]

Oh, shh! Yeah, here they come.

John: oh.

What the hell is this?

Surprise!

Wow.

Yeah, wouldn't you be if You came down in your basement

And saw two big dudes in front Of that beautiful aquarium?

She got him good. Yes, she did.

This is really Something special.

Wow.

Now, this is a man cave and, You know, I can totally Appreciate it.

So you know what we did? They're all male fish.

You know. You can tell, right?

The colors. Exactly.

See? You know your stuff.

You got a bunch Of peacocks in there.

We have a lemon jake peacock In there.

You know, they like to move The gravel around to find food.

Wayde: we have a tropheus In there.

We got the moray with the bump. He's the dominant one.

Yeah, I saw one of them.

Never seen anything Like this before.

The shape of the aquarium Is ridiculous.

It's -- it's a keg.

This is really something. It's one of a kind.

We build aquariums, And we never seen one.

Inside here is actually -- You have a pony keg.

What?And from this, You have the tap.

That is so cool. And it's nice and cold.

And under this side here, You actually have the Filtration system.

This is the cadillac Of fish tanks.

I never would imagine Having something like This in the man cave.

Brett: she basically put Her wedding gift in our hands.

Thank you, guys, so much. Did an awesome job.

John: This is awesome.

This is The best thing ever.

All right, to the new man cave And to your wedding.

Yes, to the wedding And to the fish tank.

Enjoy your fish tank.

Our next stop is l.A.'s Very own exotic reef imports.

We're gonna pick up some sharks For the shark-tank desk.

Justin!

What's up, guys? What up?

What's going on? What are you doing?

Feeding time.

Who are you feeding? The anglers.

Oh, let me feed them, Dude.

The angler -- It's an incredible fish.

First of all, They got little feet,

And it looks like they walk Around the bottom of the tank.

It has this thing that comes out Of its head called an esca.

It lures in pray.

Not only that, they have The fastest strike in the world.

Uh-oh. Oh, yeah, it's on.

Oh, it's on now. Like donkey kong.

Here it is. Ohh!

I've seen you do that To a meatball.

[ laughter ]

That shrimp -- It never had a chance.

Listen, we came here for A reason, not to feed the fish.

What's up?

We got a client. He's a shark of an attorney.

We need some sharks. All right.

Justin: all right, Here you go.

Cool. There's The marbled cat shark.

So, I love the colors Of the bamboo cat shark,

But that guy's Way too small.

Here comes the horn shark. Here he comes, wayde.

Grab him With your teeth.

So, those guys, They get up to about 3 feet,

Maybe a little bit bigger.

You can see the horns On the top.

It's got That deep 1-inch horn.

They'll jam Right into you.

So, we got 18-inch Bamboo cat shark,

12-to-18 marble, And then the horn shark.

So, make sure we have them In two days for our install.

So, come on, wayde. Come on.

[ laughs ]

Wayde: we're back in vegas, And it's time to install

The shark tank At eric's law office.

It's a pretty big tank,

And it's gonna take Two days to install.

Pull it all the way up. It's gonna go through this door.

Leave the stand. Put the tank on it.

And then we'll shim everything And level everything.

Bring it down slow And then slide on, guys.

See how smooth that is?

Nice and smooth. Fits like a glove.

I want to get The bubblers in.

And you got the air pumps And everything?

I want to Get them bubbling.

Put the back end Against the back wall.

There you go. Slowly.

All the way.

Okay, now, make sure All the wires are down.

Man: Are the wires good?

Beautiful.

It's coming.

Hey, guys.

Brett: Hey, melissa.

So, What do you think?

Wow.

We are in the middle Of our install,

And eric's wife and office Manager, melissa, walks in.

What are those things On the sides?

Coming up on "Tanked"...

Watch your fingers.

Get your arm out. Get your hand out.

[ glass shatters ]

Brett: What was that?

Brett: we're working On the shark-tank desk,

And eric's wife/office manager, Melissa, walks in

To check on our progress.

What are those things On the sides?

Melissa has no idea About these bubbler pillars.

I kind of did it on my own to Give the tank a little pizzazz.

Oh, I can't wait For this answer.

Brett: those -- well, you know, I had this vision,

And so, you know, Looking at the space,

The columns look -- It looks so empty,

So I figured that, you know, It would enhance the office

And it would be Just a phenomenal effect.

It's the pillars Of justice.

Pillars of justice?

When people walk in, They're gonna see these columns,

These beautiful Pillars.

I don't know if people Are gonna kind of get

The pillars of justice Out of that.

Did eric say -- or did You guys talk about this?

Yeah, well, you know, We didn't really...

[ laughs ]

It was kind of my idea. Uh-huh.

Wayde: I couldn't sit back And watch anymore.

It was like a shark devouring A guppy. I had to help him out.

Once the wood's on it,

The pillars is like A new additive,

But they are Really nice.

I really think you're Really gonna be happy.

If you don't like them, Then we can always Take them out.

When it's all Said and done,

I honestly think you're Gonna really like them.

All right. Well, we'll see.

Wayde: we have a long day Ahead of us.

There's a lot of work to do On the shark-tank desk.

The unveiling is tonight.

They invited a lot of people For the grand opening.

To avoid scraping the sharks' Sensitive underbellies,

We're using a fine sand Instead of a coarse gravel

On the bottom of the tank.

Wayde: guys, don't just Pour it right in.

We're laying it down at The bottom, but it's going...

Man: we're doing The best we can.

Dude, no matter what, This thing's gonna cloud, bro.

Oh, boy.

Wayde: There's no easy way to put sand On the bottom of an aquarium.

You just have to take it slow.

Sometimes, it can take four Hours for the sand to settle,

So we're moving ahead With the install.

Now we're ready to place This giant piece of granite.

Since the granite's Over 450 pounds,

We beefed up The acrylic walls of the tank

To support the weight Of the granite.

Watch your fingers.

Get your arm out. Get your hand out.

[ glass shatters ]

Brett: What was what?

Oh, man. Tell me that wasn't the tank.

It was a soda bottle. A soda bottle?

I have been in this business For a very long time.

I'll never be okay Hearing something crack.

So, no more soda bottles On the next job site.

That is badass.

Looks great, man. It's coming together.

Since the water is clear, Now we can put in the sharks.

We had our granite guys Cut two access points

On the top of the aquarium.

Since they were so heavy, The only way to lift them off

Is to use industrial Suction cups.

This is where The magic happens.

We've got sharks Coming in.

Here comes the horn shark. Here he comes, wayde.

Whoa!

Yeah, what's a shark-lawyer tank Without a shark?

Here comes the leopard. There he goes.

Man, Look at that guy.

Biting the net.

There go the bamboos.

The bamboo shark Is a nocturnal feeder

And likes to search the bottom Of the tank for food.

Frankie, wipe it all down, And let's rock 'n' roll, boys.

Oh, wow.

Melissa and myself would like To thank all of you for coming.

Everyone that's here Is family,

And everyone here has had a part In making today possible.

This is finished. Right now, this is it.

Come on in. Move on down.

Gentlemen?

Brett: we never made A tank desk before.

It's beautiful. It's practical. I hope eric loves it.

We really wanted to do something For eric and melissa

That was above and beyond, You know,

What anybody else Has ever seen before.

And I think tonight, When you guys see this,

I think you guys Will all agree.

All right, here we go. Everybody ready?

All: 1, 2, 3!

Brett: Coming up on "Tanked"...

Oh, my god.

What are you doing?

Brett: we're here At eric's new law offices,

And we're ready For the unveiling of The shark-tank desk.

It looks great,

But I'll tell you, I'm a little nervous

To see if they're gonna like The two additional pillars.

Brett: all right, here we go. Everybody ready?

[ cheers and applause ]

I can't say enough. I don't want to go home tonight.

I want to sleep here In my lobby

And just take a look At the fish tank all night long.

Beautiful, huh?

Eric: beautiful.

One of the things That we like to do

Is we like to add a little bit Of extra into our aquariums.

I added some things that I don't Think you really knew about.

We got a law book Right here,

The scales of justice.

[ squeals ] Oh, you like that, Huh?

Huh?

And over there, We have the gavel,

Which we're sure you've seen Many of those go go down,

Good and bad, I'm sure. Yes, mostly good.

Mostly good?

I added a bunch of fish That can go with the sharks

That can live Happily together.

I think it gives A lot of movement

And makes the tank Look a lot more full.

You know, melissa, they weren't Really part of the deal.

Those are My pillars of justice.

Melissa, When you walked in,

You were kind of, like, Questioning the pillars

And I told you to keep The jury deliberating.

So, what do you think?

Well, the jury's in, And they like it.

They like it? All right. Great.

He didn't do life.

Yeah, you were right. They look nice.

Way more Than what I expected.

Oh, no problem. No problem.

I'm glad we trusted him, Because they did a great job.

It looks awesome, And I love it.

I think I'm gonna be The only attorney in Town with a shark tank.

Eric: here comes a leopard shark Right there.

Look at that guy.

Brett: this shark-tank desk Turned out great.

I think it's gonna work out Awesome for the receptionist.

Brett and I have been Driving each other crazy

With these pranks.

Pranks are for kids. Man caves -- they're for men.

And what better place For the man cave --

Right here in the warehouse.

But because It's in the warehouse,

There's no privacy.

Oh, my -- What the hell is this?

Man cave.Are you Out of your mind?

Dude, I'm tired. I want to relax.

Thank you.

Grab a beer And chill out.

[ beer can opens ]

Brett: oh, yeah, It's hot, boy.

This ain't bad. I might not ever work again.

Oh, my god.

What are you doing?

What dwe're doing?Like What does that say?

[ laughs ]

"Wayde's man cave." There you go.

When -- When did you do this?

You wouldn't let him Have one in the house.

Have one what? A man cave?

So he made one Out here.

I think It's pretty cool.

Better here Than in my house.

Yeah, beats barbie dolls And makeup.

[ laughs ]

You're out of control. You have no work to do?

No work? I work 15 hours a day.

You're gonna yell at me For sitting in here?

I'm not yelling at you. I think it's kind of funny.

There's only one problem With the whole thing.

It's a man cave, And you're in it.

Now, beat it.

You can have Your man cave.

[ laughs ]
