[ exhales sharply ]

To big fish tanks.

**

-wow. -wow!

Welcome to Jordan winery, guys.

Awesome!

Before we really get Into fish talk,

We want to give you A tour of the place.

Claire is in charge of our Guest services department.

I want make sure you got a sense Of what we do here

And what we're about.

This place is amazing.

Man, oh, man. It's so beautiful, So lush, and so green.

How big is this place?

A little over 1,000 acres.

Like you grow the wine here. You bottle it.

You do everything here? You grow the grapes.

You don't grow the wine. Shut up, brett.

We do everything from the time The grapes come in,

And they still got their stems And leaves on them,

Until they leave in a bottle.

I'm excited to see How the wine is made.

Wow. Look at this.

So how many barrels Are in here?

Claire: about 4,000.

Each barrel has 25 cases Of wine, which is 300 bottles.

What's this?

This is chardonnay going Through fermentation.

In the barrels behind you, This is what it looks like.

How long do they sit In the barrels for?

Chardonnay, About 6 months.

It'll go back into The stainless-steel tanks.

They'll do The blending process.

It'll go into bottle, and then, About a year later,

It'll be available On the market.

No one is going to drink This for about two years.

Two years.

How do they actually get it From the barrels

Into the stainless steel?

Hoses and pumps, So they'll go ahead

And put a nozzle Through the bunghole

And pump it out Into stainless steel.

Ha! She said 'bunghole."

Grow up, dude.

So we've seen The chardonnay.

Would you like to see Our original oak tanks?

-let's do it. We'll follow you. -we're going to go this way.

**

-here we go. -come on into the oak-tank room.

Brett: whoa, you weren't Kidding, oak tanks.

These tanks are just as old As the winery,

So constructed In place in 1976

And have been a part Of every single vintage

Of cabernet sauvignon That we've ever done.

-pretty cool. -that is really cool.

-what is this? -this is a thief.

-a thief? -thief.

We're thieving some wine Out of here.

-nice. I like it. -ah.

I need to get one of those When I go for ice cream.

Surprised You don't have one.

-who's first? -brett is.

That's fine.

All right. Get a little more.

-it's pretty impressive. -yeah. It's pretty good.

What do you know About wine?

It's dry, but it must be wet If I'm drinking it.

Well, thank you very much. Well, what's next?

Well, we're going to go see a Little bit more of the property.

All right. Let's go do it. Ready?

Well, you know. Come on.

-all right. All right. -we'll get more of that later.

This is our chef's garden.

Wayde: look at All the different basil.

I never knew there were So many different basil.

How many different things Do you grow here?

John: well, right now there's Over 100 different fruits

And vegetables That are growing here.

That's not good for you. It's fruit and vegetables.

They don't grow burgers And tacos here. Sorry.

This is pretty amazing.

-it is. -what kind of tree is this?

-this is a fig tree. -here we are.

Should we have a little fun And pick some figs?

-I see two right here. -can you reach those?

-yeah. -I don't think I could.

-well, you're short. -I know.

Wayde: oh, this one is soft. That's a good one?

-yep. Pull it off. -pull one down for me, too.

-wow. -come on, guys.

We're going to do something A little different here.

Okay.

We've gotten to know Each other a little bit,

And if you're comfortable,

I wanted you to Feel free and grab my ass.

**

[ both chuckle ]

These are maverick and goose, And they do like figs.

Oh, you like that fig, huh? Come on.

They'll eat anything.

Kind of like wayde.

Come on.

Oh, look. Brett scared them.

They don't like you, Brett.

They say animals are A good judge of character.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Let's just get down to business.

We got to figure out What kind of tank

We're doing for you, john.

Let's go do it.

That guy really doesn't Like you, brett.

Brett: nope.

You scared the donkey.

**

Welcome to my house, Guys.

Wow. This property is unbelievable.

Brett: whoa.

What's up with the hole In the wall?

This is where I want To put my tank.

I took the liberty of giving you A little head start.

So my first choice would be To put a fish tank here

That you can see through. For this room.

If you guys Can't get it done,

I got to satisfy myself With a bar.

No one has ever brought Something to us

That we couldn't get done.

So what shape You looking for?

An l shape, But with a twist.

Okay.

So it's going to come out here And make a 90-degree turn,

But if you look, There's this arch here, right?

So I need it To stick out here

To preserve the symmetry Of this arch.

So an l with a little...

-kick-out. -...Kick-out to the notch.

Wayde: that's different. Okay.

And you want the tank To fit in here,

Or you want it To protrude out?

No, I want it to fit in.

I want it to be Part of the wall.

I want it to be flush with where The wall used to be here.

Brett: So you want it to look like

It's built into the wall On this side.

So you got to, like, Replace the wall.

There'll be a picture frame All the way around.

No. We're not doing that, No picture frame.

Look, the '70s were great In a lot of ways,

But the '70s Are, in fact, over.

Just clean Seam to the wall.

-got it, very modern. -yeah.

Did you have any ideas On what kind of fish tank

You're looking for?

I've been a diver in hawaii And the marshall islands,

Love scuba diving. -okay.

I want an authentic, Real-deal living reef.

Live reef, that's actually Pretty exciting.

Bring the ocean Into wine country.

Exactly.

Brett: we've done several Coral tanks in the past,

And we love them.

They can be harder to maintain Than artificial-reef tanks,

So we don't see too Many requests for them,

But it's a great chance To show off what atm can do.

Inside the tank, any theme-ing, Winery, wine glasses,

Any decoration?

Okay. This part is important.

I do not want any funny, Like, you know,

Plastic, like, Wine stuff in there.

I just want an authentic, Real-deal reef tank.

You know, it's not every day That our clients

Are this prepared.

This guy Really wants a tank.

When do you need This by?

-ah. -oh, boy. Oh, boy.

I have a lot of awesome Harvest parties, right?

So it's got to be Before fall is over.

Oh, boy. That's like a sour grape.

Stop whining.

Well, you know, The good thing is is

That we don't have to Make anything artificial now,

So that's what takes A lot of our time.

We can give john corals That are well-established,

So we won't have to wait A long time for them to grow.

I think we can do it.

I don't think That'll be a problem.

I think It's kind of a challenge,

Especially considering that You already have something

In your mind That you want,

But I definitely think We got it down, man.

What do you think? -we can get it done.

Let's do it. Back to vegas!

Let's go, captain.

Here, make the turn. Pull it in.

All right. Hold on. Nope.

It ain't making it. There's no way this Is making it, bro.

We're doing an awesome But challenging tank

For a vineyard In sonoma county,

And I have to get The gang up to speed.

This is a really, Really cool job.

John jordan, He owns this winery.

He wants a reef aquarium.

Oh, yay!

I'm so excited to do A reef tank.

Well, imagine the tank Being shaped like this.

It looks like A golf club.

Heather: that does look a little Like a golf club.

-yeah, yeah. -like the bottom of it.

That's a golf club. That don't Look like a golf club.

Well, just add An extension on it.

It'll look like A golf club.

I swear, sometimes Building these tanks

Are easier than keeping These guys focused.

So you're seeing the aquarium From three different sides?

Actually, Almost everywhere.

The living room, you can see Through it, the bedroom,

The hallway.

Now when you're looking at it, At his house,

There's a side view, And there's an archway here.

So this piece goes into This archway that's right here.

Oh, I understand everything that You're discussing right now,

But did you bring Any wine back?

-did I bring any wine back? -yeah. Where's the wine?

Really.

What do you care If he brought wine back?

You don't even drink.

I have people come over To my house

That are connoisseurs On wine, okay?

Connoisseur. You have connoisseurs?

No one you know is A connoisseur on anything.

Connoisseurs?

No.

Dinosaurs, maybe.

So honestly, Did you bring any wine?

No bottles, no boxes, Nothing, huh?

-boxes? -box?

[ both laugh ]

Hold on. You guys know about wine?

I would imagine I would be able to tell

The difference between, like, A really cheap bottle of wine

And a better bottle Of wine.

I think I could do that, too.

I think we should do a little Sip test and see who can tell.

Are you going to Have cheese?

-how about some crackers? -oh, boy.

Does he realize he didn't finish Telling us about the tank?

Shh! Let redneck handle it.

-all right. -I'm excited for this job.

Time to work, guys. All right?

-all right. Yeah. -beautiful.

Thanks to wayde's Uncanny ability

To convey details of a project,

The team should have No questions about building

This live coral-reef tank.

With the wall in john's Home already removed,

The shape of our tank is set.

We'll construct a modified L-shaped aquarium

That perfectly follows The walls and archway.

Inside, we'll use Live coral to build a reef

And fill it with Colorful saltwater fish.

We'll also add Specialized lighting

To mimic the coral's Natural habitat.

Instead of a facade, We'll complete the exterior

With a new wall To give this tank a seamless,

Built-in look.

**

Hey. We were looking All over for you.

-I'm out here working. -what are you doing?

I'm testing the lighting Right now for jordan winery.

The lighting is one of the most Important thing for a reef.

Because they need the light more To survive than the fish do.

Aren't aquarium lights All the same?

Well, let me ask you A question.

You're in your office, Under your light.

Are you getting a suntan?

-no. -no.

You're going to go to the, Let's say, the tanning salon,

Like, you know, A fake and bake.

I definitely don't Fake and bake.

All natural.

I get everything all natural, From the sunlight,

On the beach, unlike irwin. -me, too.

The sad thing is I don't think My father has ever been

In a tanning bed In his whole life.

That's all natural, Believe it or not.

My father thinks He's the hottest thing.

Oh, yeah. Orange is the new tan.

Let's go back To the coral tank.

-okay. -we have a special light here.

It's from ecotec lighting, So you can program this to go on

In the morning Not so intense

And slowly rise to get Real intense like the sun.

Watch this.

I'm going to do, let's see, The thunderstorm first.

You see, the light Will start flickering

Like a lightning storm.

-oh! That is cool, yeah. -oh, that's cool.

So you're sitting.

All of a sudden, there's a storm Going on in the ocean.

Now what's really cool Is you go into disco.

It's got a disco mode?

-disco! -whoa!

Yay! Okay.

I got to show you Something.

You got different types Of corals, right?

Okay. Now let's say this is In the middle.

Give me the ladder. Hold on a second. Move over, agnes.

Why don't you step On this ladder?

Jordan winery's tank Is approximately 36" tall,

Right where your nose is, Heather.

-okay. -okay?

Hold this light for a second.

Turn up the intensity A little bit, right?

-wow. -now, do you see the corals?

It's, like, really bright here And less brighter over here?

-yeah. -I'm putting this down.

My hand is getting tired.

-a little heavy? -a little bit.

Let's say I build a coral Structure, a rock, a reef rock,

And I built it up. -right.

I know certain coral is going To want intense lighting.

I'll place those on the top.

Now I come home, And all of a sudden I see

Freddy, that's my coral, freddy,

And freddy Is not doing too well.

I was like, "Oh, boy. Freddy wants more light."

Okay? Or he's got too much light.

So I either move him up, Or I move him down.

Once you find that spot, voilà,

Then you have A beautiful freddy.

Do you think the fumes in the Shop have finally gotten to him?

After 20 years, Yeah.

You know what my favorite thing About this whole thing is?

-what? -ready?

[ techno music plays ]

**

Live corals require Special filtration

To maintain precise Water conditions.

Hey, honey.

I got the butterflies You asked for.

Perfect, perfect.

-they're super cute. -you like them?

Yeah, but I don't know What they're for.

We're putting The butterflies in here

To see the flow going Through the refugium.

A refugium is a special Filtration system using plants.

It mimics the water conditions

Of the corals' Natural environment.

The aquatic plants filter Toxins out of the water

Just like trees remove Carbon dioxide from the air.

Then they release nutrients Back into the tank

To feed the corals.

I want to see how The butterflies work.

They're going to show us How the flow goes,

So let's get some water in this.

Like the tank above,

The refugium requires good Water flow to operate properly.

So now that we got water in, This is what happens.

The water is in the tank.

It drains down in this pipe, Let's say,

And we're going to start Getting the flow

Going in the whole refugium.

Drop some butterflies in there. -like a handful?

Take a handful. All right.

And only put them In the first divider.

Put it right there. That's fine.

Drop them.

So these butterflies Represent the waste,

And they're going Through the whole refugium.

Yeah. Now watch the water flow.

You see the butterfly?

It's going down Through the dividers,

And as that's happening, Gases are releasing.

Some of the water is going Into the protein skimmer.

All the protein Is coming out of urine.

You could throw this out and Pour it out and clean it out.

This is very cool.

In this area, A nice low, slow flow here,

So the plants can grow.

They're eating All the nitrates.

Then the water gets churned up Again and releases more gases,

Back into the pump and pumped Back into the tank.

That's cool.

So by the time It gets to that side,

All the bad stuff is out?

You got it.

So this, actually, is working In the way we want it to.

Good job.

[ laughs ]

The general has got to be The most disorganized person

In this office.

He borrowed a file To arrange shipping,

And now it's somewhere In this mess.

Where is this stuff?

Jj.

Ugh!

[ telephone rings ]

Atm, this is agnes.

John: hey, agnes. This is john jordan.

Hey, john. How are you? How can I help you?

Yeah. I've got a new project For you guys.

I need a fish tank For one of our schools...

-okay. -...Next week.

Next week?

Wayde: all right, guys, You want to stir it up

So you make it fish-safe And the fish are happy.

So swirl around And get all the dirt off.

Agnes: I just got a surprise Call from john jordan.

We're already doing One tank for him,

But he's requesting another.

Wayde and brett are out To lunch, but I can handle this.

John: long story short, I have a foundation,

And we rebuild, Among other things,

Preschools for Underprivileged kids,

And we need a fish tank For one of our schools.

What are you Looking for?

Well, it's in a school,

So there's some space And weight constraint,

I mean, no longer Than 6 feet,

And it can't have any more than 100 gallons of water in it.

And so are you looking Just for a flat tank?

No, something creative, Maybe something bent or curved?

So a bow front.

Do you want saltwater Or freshwater?

Probably easier for the school To maintain freshwater.

Okay, good.

Freshwater, for us, would be Easier with this time crunch

Just because plumbing And all of that

Is a little bit simpler On freshwater tanks,

So that's good.

But the only concern is, I don't Know if they're going to...

I mean, I will Go find wayde and brett

And try To make it happen.

Thanks, agnes.

You're welcome, john. Bye.

Brett got back first, So I gave him the news

About the tank john Wants for his school.

I can't believe that you dropped This on me last second.

I didn't drop it on you. He just called.

What am I Supposed to do?

Brett: creating tanks Specifically for children

Is a real satisfying Part of this job,

But this time line, It's going to be tight,

And I don't want To let the kids down.

All right, we're limited, right, So he wants a bow front.

We can't make it. We don't have time.

This tank has got to be Ready in a week.

If we're going to get This tank done in time...

We got a ton Of tanks, right?

...We got to upcycle Something in the shop.

So let's just start looking And see what we got.

We got this bow-front Right here, right?

You said it has to be...

Less than 6 feet wide And less than 100 gallons.

-well, that's... -that's not 100 gallons.

All right, Let's keep moving along.

Let's see what else. -what about these bubble tops?

Well, it's a complex curve, So that has multiple bends.

That's bending this way And bending this way.

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. You only need it this way.

So that wouldn't work.

Well, what about These cylinders?

So a cylinder Might be okay.

I don't want to take A full-length cylinder

And cut off 2 or 3 feet.

Instead, we have some of the Ends from previously cut tanks.

We got a variety Of different ones.

So this 27-by-40, that's going To be way too tall.

36 by 13. That's too tiny. -that's tiny.

That's right there. This tube right here...

Yeah?

...Cut that in half And put a back and a top

And a bottom on it.

-it's perfect. Less than 100. -it's perfect.

Yo, fellas! Yo!

Chuy's team will make short work Of this modification.

Come on. Fellas, come on!

Wait. We're going to cut it now?

Yeah, right now. We don't have no time.

We're in a rush.

By measuring, marking,

And cutting our cylinder In half.

Nice! [ laughs ]

I love that thing.

Now the team will glue On the top, bottom, and back,

And we'll have our tank.

Since this tank is being Installed in a preschool,

It'll need to be scaled To pint-sized perfection.

We'll make our stand Just 30 inches tall,

Keeping the tank at eye level,

And add a small step, So everyone can take a peek.

We'll fill the tank With a colorful array

Of aquatic plants,

Insert an entire class of kids Made from acrylic

And finally add 30 freshwater fish

Who will feel right at home In their new school.

**

Wayde: the crew at atm thinks They are such wine experts.

They can tell the difference Between the expensive wine

And the cheap stuff.

Well, I got a treat For them, wayde style.

Redneck brings His own red glass.

Welcome to the king's winery.

So what we have here is we have Two whites and two reds.

One is expensive.

One is inexpensive.

We're going to tell you Whether we think

It's expensive or cheap?

-correct. -okay.

We're going to start With red first.

Everybody hold their glass up And smell it.

Get a little aroma Out of it.

All right, So everybody taste their wine.

Let's see. Hold on.

What do you guys think?

You like it? -I do like that.

What do you think, red?

It's got a nice Flowery smell,

But it tastes Like vinegar.

General, What do you think?

Swish around. -[ laughs ]

It tastes like crap.

What did you -- oh, my god. You drank the whole glass.

I actually really Liked this one.

-I liked it. -you do?

It's got a lot of berries, And I definitely taste the oak.

We're going to taste The second one, okay?

Okay, that's a good one. All right.

All right. Round two. Go, guys.

I actually Like this one better.

This one is worse Than the other one.

Agnes: it's because your palate Is probably dead.

[ laughter ]

I like The first one better.

Me, too. I say the first one Is way more expensive.

This is Round one of the white.

They say if you Blindfold yourself,

It enhances your taste buds.

Everybody is getting The same thing.

Everybody put their hands In front on the table.

One, two, three.

Aah! Oh!

What? Pickle juice.

Oh, yeah! This is pickle juice!

Oh, where is he?

Honestly, he's The biggest cheater ever.

Oh, really. That's your husband.

We're out. Grab the good bottle, agnes.

Despite leaving a bad taste In my mouth,

We all have to chip in

And get these tanks done Before the install date.

We have a lot Of plants here.

-I know. Right? -oh, my god.

So agnes and I are working on The interior of the school tank.

This one is -- I like this one a lot.

You would Because it's purple.

Redneck: [ mockingly ] Hi. My name is heather.

I'd like an $80 pinot, please.

What is that?

Hi, I'm agnes.

Oh, that's me!

There's a heather.

I love it. You used a good picture.

-and there's an agnes. -oh, my god.

What are these for, To make lollipops?

Yeah, I can just see somebody Chomping your head off.

Well, that happens Every day here.

It's fine.

These are Actually children

That we're putting in The preschool tank.

A lot of times, freshwater tanks Just consist of some plants

And a few store-bought props.

John wants color and creativity.

I'm a big kid at heart, So I thought it'd be fun to add

Some handmade, colorful Acrylic children to put inside.

Is there a way that we could Make it look like the kids

Are climbing the branch,

You know, like, kids Climb up and sit on trees?

Yeah, we can probably take The heat gun and bend them

And make them In a sitting position.

Last time I had agnes Use a heat gun...

Oh, wait a second.

...It didn't go so well.

Brett: I don't know if this Is bent enough.

Whoa! Oh, my god! Look at that!

Oh! Oh! Aah! Put it out!

I don't know why we're still Talking about this.

You almost Set the shop on fire.

Maybe that was Intentional.

Did you ever Think about that?

What do we got to do to make These guys sit on the tree?

Well, We got to bend them.

These pieces of acrylic Are pretty thin.

Watch.

Go like that and hold it, And they'll become pliable

After only a few minutes Over the heat.

Oh, that's cute.

And then you wait For it to cool off?

Yep.

That doesn't look right.

I don't think this is Going to work.

Let me try.

Everyone relax.

Don't touch it.

Oh!

Nobody touching it.

I mean, this would be A cute idea,

But I just don't think it's Going to play out very well.

I don't think it's Going to work.

Definitely not going To look good.

Can't we just have them standing On a pedestal, something?

I'm thinking These will work.

Okay. Let's do it. You have the glue?

Yeah. I got solvent right over here.

-let's try it. -that's a good idea.

The solvent melts the acrylic On both pieces.

Just drip it down Along the bottom.

Set that on there.

Keep it centered.

Agnes: all right. You ready?

-don't glue your hands. -I'm not.

As it dries, It fuses them together as one.

I think they're done, Heather. No?

Ready? -well, let go and see.

-let go. Ready? Go. -ready.

-they look good. -they're gonna look cute.

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

The great barrier reef Is earth's

Largest coral-reef system.

End to end, how long Is the great barrier reef?

**

Find out after the break.

**

Brett: australia's east-coast Reef system is comprised

Of nearly 3,000 reefs And 900 islands,

Stretching the distance From maine to miami,

Making it the planet's Largest living organism.

Wayde comes in a close second.

Wayde: I heard that.

Recently, warmer ocean Temperatures have changed

The delicate environment The reefs need to survive,

Causing many colonies Of corals to die.

Scientists are working Frantically to find a solution

To save this ecological wonder Before it's too late.

The freshwater fish For the school tank

Are being shipped from florida,

But for jordan winery's Reef tank,

Agnes and I are off to l.A. To pick out fish and coral.

I'm excited to see What ricky has for us.

Agnes: I know.

Hey, ricky. -hi, ricky.

Ricky: hey. Welcome back, ladies.

-how are you? -how you guys doing?

-good. -good.

We're doing my favorite tank, A real reef tank.

Okay. Great.

In a live reef aquarium, You have to choose fish

That won't harm The delicate corals.

Our client is john jordan, Who owns jordan winery.

The tank is approximately 600-gallon l-shape.

Fantastic.

All right. Let's go see what you got.

All right.

Over here is fire fish.

-fire fish? -yes, like a corkscrew.

It reminds me Of a corkscrew.

-okay. -exactly.

I love the color On the tail end there.

Yeah, they have a lot Of colors on them,

And it looks like The front is just white,

But if you look closely,

It's got a little yellow In there.

The eye has got A little violet in it,

And the back portion looks Like red wine, doesn't it?

Yeah. It looks like a cabernet.

They're reef safe, So don't bother corals,

Don't bother any invertebrates They might put in the tank.

They're a perfect addition To any kind of reef tank.

He's going to love it.

What else do you have To pair with it?

All right. Let's go take a look at it.

**

This is A banded coral shrimp,

Also known As a boxing shrimp.

If you look at the claws That it has,

It has the hands Right in front of his face,

And it's, like, looking like It's going to take a punch.

Oh, he does Look like that!

-no. -he's putting up his dukes.

They're not very aggressive Towards fish.

They're not Going to go and bite it

Or try to catch it Or eat it.

And it won't eat The corals, either?

Not at all. Not at all.

They will eat up all the uneaten Food and keep the tank clean.

He's like The maid of the tank?

Pretty much.

And how many Could we put in?

-they're territorial... -okay.

...Of their space because They're going to feeding

In the same area.

Given the size of tanks That you guys are building,

You can keep two of them,

And they'll just occupy Two different spots of the tank,

And they'll be fine.

So now we got the critters, And we got the fish.

All we're missing is corals.

Yes, and I bet you have Some great corals to show us.

Yes, I do.

**

I love corals.

This is a branching Hammer coral.

Agnes: that is so pretty. It looks amazing.

-that's great, yeah. -yeah, it's very pretty.

If you look closely, Each of the tentacles,

They look like A little hammer.

That's why they get The name hammer coral.

So is it a plant Or an animal?

-it is an animal. -so what does it eat?

They're photosynthetic Animals,

So they derive 90% Of their food from the sunlight

As well as at night, The sweeper tentacles comes out,

And they will grab Zooplanktons,

And they'll bring it To their mouth.

So these will just grow However big, right?

Corals, they will grow Huge colonies in the wild.

Crazy.

And they grow, like, Thousands of years.

If a coral dies, it's probably Because it's our fault

Because if we give them The perfect conditions,

They will live forever Because they're a colony.

-wow. -oh, wow.

So much To learn about corals.

I love them. What else do we have?

**

The next coral that we have Over here is a xenia coral.

Agnes: oh, it looks like A cauliflower.

They're called pulsing xenias Or pumping xenias

Because the polyps Looks like little hands,

And they're always Opening and closing,

Opening and closing And opening and closing.

-see them? -uh-huh.

They're moving.

They do for excreting The waste and gas exchange.

So are you implying that By opening and closing,

They're basically Pooping and farting?

Uh...

That's what I was going to ask.

Great minds.

Probably kind of something Like that, yeah.

They're a beginner coral.

These can get A little invasive sometimes,

And they can Just grow too fast.

What people generally Like to do is, like,

They just make a little Island for them separately,

So they don't touch The bigger rockwork

And just cover The whole aquarium.

So what happens When they get too big?

Do you cut them?

You can just cut them,

And it's just going to Become a new one,

And the stub is going to Grow into another xenia,

So you can share them With your friends.

So I think john is going to be So overly excited.

He's definitely Got nothing to whine about.

-right? -absolutely. -all right.

**

We're back in california At the jordan winery,

Ready to install Our first of two aquariums.

All right, guys, this install Is going to be crazy.

We got to actually get all This equipment up this hill

Because this truck Can't make it.

The guys From aquatic design,

They're going to Help us all day,

So we got to Work together.

Right there, Straight in.

Not only do we have to Bring it up this hill.

This hill is, like, A half a mile long.

Dude, It's a mountain.

So we're going to need Your help with this one.

It's going to Teeter-totter.

I want all hands on the crate As he's going up.

All right?

-is it clear? -keep going.

You're clear now.

Over the left, left, left. Go left.

**

[ brakes squeal ]

Okay. We got one more to go.

**

**

Because this tank and stand Have a bump-out,

It won't fit through The front door.

We'll get it on the cart.

We got to go through The whole back,

Up the steps, through The sliding glass door,

So, I'm sorry, It's a lot more work,

But it's the only ways It's going to go in.

Tilt this way. One, two, three, lift.

Slide it underneath. Everybody work together.

Push forward, guys.

Brett: are we going to be able To get it in that way?

Oh, no. The small one has to go In first, yeah.

-I got the cart. -one, two, three.

Make the turn. Pull it in.

All right. Hold on.

Nope, Ain't making it.

There's no way this Is making it, bro.

This tank is 42 inches At its widest,

And we're just a couple Of inches short

From getting it Through the doorway.

We got to Either take the door off

Or figure out another way.

Removing the door should give us Enough space to get it in.

Lift up, mike, All the way.

Now, pull towards you.

There's five more inches That way.

We might not have to take The other door off.

Our first attempt to get The steel stand

In the back door -- Failure.

Slide it in, Gives us another six inches.

That might work. -nope.

-it ain't going to work. -it ain't going to work.

So did the second. So did the third.

Okay, so the first three Attempts failed, so now,

We're going to Lay the stand down

And put it in The right way.

Oh, boy.

But in order to do that,

We'll have to remove All of the filtration.

Otherwise, It could shift and break

When we turn The tank sideways.

All right. We're good.

All right. Let's get the tank.

All right. Now give it a second.

Push a little bit more.

There you go. Watch your fingers.

Hold that end From crashing down.

You don't want it To slam.

Slide it towards us, Guys.

-slide. -keep going.

Slide it back now, Brett.

-slide it back. -slide it back.

Good job, guys.

Wayde: we're going to take The real reef rock.

We're going to cover the pipe.

We have some plate coral, So we're going to build ledges,

So the corals sit on All the way around,

And we won't see the pipe.

Brett! -yo!

Let's get some live sand in. Where are you?

Wayde: nature's ocean -- the Fish are going to love this.

The coral is going to love it. It's going to be perfect.

All right. We're good on the sand?

We're good on the sand. Now we need water.

All right. Let's get the water.

This is seawater, Baby.

Brett, let it rip!

All right, guys. That's all we can do tonight.

Brett: john's contractors need The morning to replace the wall

Around john's tank,

So we're heading Over to the school

To install aquarium number two.

Hey, guys. What's going on?

Wayde: Because this tank was a rush,

We didn't get a chance To run the plumbing,

So we're going to have To drill the tank on site.

The big risk with drilling The tank on site...

-a little higher up. -...If we crack the acrylic...

[ drill whirs ]

...There is absolutely Nothing we can do.

[ drill grinds, stops abruptly ]

[bleep] [bleep]

It's okay. We're good.

Luckily, the teeth just Got stuck on the acrylic.

Thankfully, There's no fractures.

That's exactly What I wanted, boys.

Let's get the lids on. Let's get the canopy on.

Let's show it off. -let's do it.

And hang out, calm down, Watch the fish.

It's even cool when The teachers need a break.

Unbelievable. Unbelievable.

All right, man, This coral is a pretty coral,

The galaxea coral.

Nice.

You know, It actually comes from

The greek word "Galaxaios,"

Which means milky white,

Just like the milky white tips On that coral.

You can turn them A little bit towards me.

Beautiful. Right there.

Wayde: we need to place These corals at proper depths,

So they can get The right amount of lighting.

Once in place, the ecotec Lighting will mimic

The same conditions They get in the ocean.

Now you can see them From here.

Last but not least, We got the cat's eye coral.

This is wayde's favorite Coral, too, I think,

Because it's called The donut coral, too.

Watch, watch. Watch wayde's face.

Watch and see how much -- Wayde!

That's a nice one, right? You like that one?

Hurry up. You're missing pieces.

Wayde: we just completed Our second tank

For winery owner John jordan.

This one is extra special Because it's a living reef.

Oh, my god. Look what you guys did.

**

It's incredible.

You turned my wall and half My house into an ocean.

I knew that there was going To be some serious

Engineering challenges.

I took a big risk by taking That wall out

Before you guys Even got here, but, man,

I'm blown away, Vastly exceeds expectations.

Wayde: so after You ripped your wall out,

It was important to us to have The same configuration

Of the arch here, So putting this extension

On the end was A little difficult.

This is not an ordinary, You know, corner-shaped tank.

This tank is approximately 600 gallons.

It's 96 inches long, 60 inches long this way,

24" wide, And it's 36 inches tall.

John: there's a lot of fish In there, too.

Brett: we got over 50 fish.

The powder blue tang happens To be my favorite fish of all.

We have A purple square anthias.

In here we also have A sailfin tang,

Also known as the desjardini.

These are the biggest Of the sailfin tang.

They get to be about 15 inches,

And the reason they get Their name sailfin

Is because when they open up,

They actually look like A sail of a boat.

And I think they come From the red sea.

I mean, You know what's amazing

Is the different Corals you brought.

I mean, you brought One of my personal favorites,

The bubble coral.

Also, too, is we have A rasta leather coral,

And this is An aggressive coral.

They actually have Fingers that stick out,

And you have to Give them enough room

So that they don't mess With any of the other corals.

In total, we have over a dozen Species of coral in the tank.

They all look happy And healthy.

On the other side, We had your guys come in,

Do all the cabinetry work To match around the stand.

Best lights out on the market For a reef aquarium,

You can change the lighting In your tank from your phone.

You set it up. You want a lightning storm.

You push the button. It goes into a lightning storm.

Wow. That's really cool.

I didn't even know That was possible.

This week, we built two tanks For our deep-diving client.

The pint-sized tank we built For the wright preschool

Is 55 inches tall And 5 feet wide.

The 85-gallon freshwater tank Will give young sea explorers

A chance to see More than 30 fish

Enjoy their underwater Playground.

John's home aquarium is An l shape that's been modified

To contour the curves Of his home.

This natural paradise Features saltwater fish

And coral from the world's Best diving sites.

The multi-sided tank is visible From john's living area,

As well as his den.

The 60 fish and 13 colonies Of coral make this tank home.

Could not be happier,

I'm so stoked to show This to my friends.

But I got one more task For you guys...

-one more... -...Just one more thing.

All right. Well, what is it?

Follow me.

I thought we'd do something That most people don't get to do

When they come To the wine country.

You're going to actually Get to do some work.

Work?

I just worked for The last couple days.

Now I got to work more.

Worked a couple days? You haven't worked.

Look at All those grapes, bro.

Oh, my god. That's a lot of grapes.

Yeah, I bet you only like The drinking part, huh?

You're probably right.

I probably wouldn't be A very good winemaker.

Probably not. You're lazy.

This is The sorting table.

In here we look For something called mog.

Mog stands for "Material other than grapes."

Generally, that is, like, Sticks, leaves.

You want to Pull these out.

Put those In the can there.

-brett, you better hurry up. -come on, you guys. Hurry up.

-you're missing pieces. -you're missing --

What the hell Are you doing?

Don't eat them.

Dude, there's no Eating on the job.

Dude, That's a good grape.

Oh, you got some mog In your teeth.

Maggie, shut it down. You guys, hey.

Thanks for playing.

You know, I think this Is not the game for you.

Mog-ing is not it, Huh?

I think you guys Should stick to fish tanks.

Yeah. I'm not a good picker.

-except your nose. -whatever.

Ready to head back to vegas?

Yeah. I'm going to miss mog-ing.

Let's do it.
