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

Ludacris.
-what's up, bro?

And I've been calling
For years

Trying to get you
Guys to my house.

You finally show up.

Get in this damn house
Right now, man.

So, technically
This area right here.

-that's it.
-okay.

That's all
The wife gave me.

I think you should
Step your game up a little.

-dude, you're ludacris.
-the fish can be ludacris.

Matter of fact, you can
Some some "Ludafish."

-hey!
-hey.

I've been thinking about it --
It's been 6½ years.

I think I'm ready to take this
To the next step.

So, we're here looking
For an engagement ring.

He wants that, like,
Kind of sexy vibe to it.

Sexy vibe?

Yo, yo, yo, yo, guys!

Yo, what's up, luda?

I kind of need you guys to just
Get the hell out of the house.

Fast and furious!

What the [bleep]?

Luda, come on in!

Hell, yeah!
That's what I'm talking about.

I like that, I like it,
I like it.

Wayde: I'm wayde king.

Man: yeah!

Brett: I'm brett raymer.

Jackpot, baby!

We're two new yorkers
Who moved to las vegas

To follow our dreams...

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

Wow!

Look at the little fishies!

Our family is the number-one
Aquarium builder in the world.

I was forced
Into this relationship.

I married brett's sister.

I love you.

Brett:
And my dad runs operations.

We call him "The general."

This is the way I roll!

We may fight,
But somehow we make it work.

Aah!

Listen, you guys
Are the experts.

It's gonna be amazing.

If you can dream it...

...We can build it.

Hey, hey, hey.
What's up, guys?

Agnes: we're talking about
Future projects.

I reached out
To monster jam and --

Someone you love --
The rock.

That'd be great.
Imagine doing one for the rock.

-that'd be awesome.
-that would -- right?

All right, nice, nice.
What about you, redneck?

I'm not into sales
Or the celebrity thing

Like you all are.

But I was trying to get
Ahold of, like, luke bryan

Or maybe john deere.

I think
I can do that one.

But imagine doing a tractor
Or something like that.

That'd be cool.
-yeah.

That would be cool.

Let's book 'em --
Let's get them booked.

Hey,
I got something booked.

-what do you got booked?
-I got somebody big.

Big from what,
The 1950s?

No, no, no, no.

Listen, you've had
Rappers before.

Okay, you had
Shaquille o'neal.

He's not a rapper!

You had icon.

Icon?
Who's icon?

You know,
An icon on your phone?

-his name's akon.
-akon.

-icon is a --
-icon, akon, d-con.

We all con.

I'll tell you what --
How about ludacris?

-ludacris.
-ludacris?

Like, ludacris, like
"Move, get out the way"?

-"Fast and furious"?
-we've been friends for years.

My father's been claiming
That he's friends

With ludacris for years.

If he's friends with ludacris,
I'm best friends with elvis.

Dad, come on.
Seriously?

No, no, I'm telling you!

Eight years you've
Been telling us.

-eight years!
-don't be playing a joke on us.

I'm telling you,
I wouldn't do that to you.

-okay.
-have I disappointed --

[ laughter ]

Well...

Even he can't say that
With a straight face.

All right, so listen --
We'll go check it out.

You guys know what to do, so
Let's rock and roll, all right?

-all right.
-we'll get you back.

Oh, no.

-all right.
-I don't believe it still.

-you guys will be surprised.
-you bet we will.

Ludacris is an award-winning
Rapper and actor

Whose appeared in countless
Tv shows and films,

Including the
"Fast and the furious" series.

He's one of the biggest
All-around stars today.

I don't know why,
But I'm actually trusting

The general on this one.

I don't know.
He booked our trip to l.A.,

So, you know, I guess
We got to trust him.

Ugh, that's debatable.

This could be, like,
One of his old friends

From back in the day's
House.

Dude, I don't trust the general,
But I'm excited.

-hello?
-it is him! Yes!

Luda!

Wait, wait, wait,
Wait, wait a second.

You sons of bitches.

No, no, no, no, man.

I've been calling
For years

Trying to get you
Guys to my house.

You finally show up
So --

Wayde: we thought -- we thought
The general was lying.

Yeah, the general was
Telling the truth.

We didn't believe him.

Once in your life, the general's
Telling us the truth.

Don't you feel bad
You didn't follow up sooner?

What the hell, man?

He'd been telling us, luda,
For such a long time

We never believed him.

So why the hell did it take this
Long for you guys to come here?

You don't know the general.

Exactly!

Man, get in this damn house
Right now, man.

I just want to show you around
The house for a little while,

If that's cool.
-this is nice.

This is beautiful.
Look at this table.

Paid a lot of money
For this table.

As a matter of fact,
I never get to show it off.

Check this out.

Boom.

-wow.
-oh, it moves. Look at that.

-look at that.
-yeah.

-I'm liking that.
-that's pretty cool.

So, sometimes you want to eat
With, you know, 8 people,

But then every now
And then you want to eat

With a little bit more,
Say about 10.

He likes
To eat by himself.

You like
To eat by yourself?

I like to eat anytime.

I don't care if
I'm by myself or with people.

But the table's really nice,
And on top of that,

Look at that view.

Oh, yeah, yeah.
Come check out the view.

-oh, my god.
-check out the view.

Oh, my god. Wow.

This is awesome.

Man.

Breathe it in,
Breathe it in.

Yes.

The pool's nice, too.
I like that.

Hard work pays --
The pool, the bar.

Actually, we should have put
The fish tank right here.

We can do that, you know.

-really?
-yeah.

We can make anything
Into a fish tank.

-that is true, considering --
-I actually do like --

I like swimming.

So, really, why do you
Want a fish tank?

You know what?

Fish tanks
Are sexy to me, man.

Okay.

You know what I mean?
They're extremely sexy.

But even more than that,
They're relaxing.

I work hard as hell.

I don't even get
To really enjoy this house

Because I work so hard.

So what I do like when I step in
My front door is to be relaxed

And just, you know, just relieve
A little bit of stress.

-got you.
-and I love fish, obviously.

They're just therapeutic.

You can talk
To your fish.

I have nothing but girls,
You know what I mean?

Literally -- my wife,
I'm talking about my daughters.

I have no sons --
I have nothing.

I'm the only male.
That's why I work out so hard --

I got to balance
The testosterone

Inside my household.

-you want some male fish?
-I need fish to talk to, man.

Gotcha, I gotcha.

Have you ever had
A tank before?

I did a tank before, but, man,
The puffer fish

Ate all the rest of the fish
In the tank, man.

-got to feed them.
-I did!

-and he still ate them?
-he still ate them.

He was greedy.
-whoo, boy.

This time around,
I need some fish

That I can actually
Have a conversation

With that don't eat
The other fish.

We can do that.

We'll tell you
Your compatibility,

Which fish are good,
Which ones you don't mix,

You know, stuff like that.
-okay. Good.

All right, so I --
I got a few questions.

-yeah. Talk to me.
-they call you "Ludacris."

How'd -- how'd you get
That name?

My first name is chris.

When it came to my raps,
And obviously when it comes

To my videos and just doing wild
And crazy things,

If you look up "Ludicrous"
In the dictionary,

It means "Beyond crazy,
Wild, ridiculous,"

And I just thought
It felt creatively,

So "Chris," --
"Ludacris."

So you've been doing music,
And then you got into filming.

Which one you like most?

You people always ask me
That question, man.

Well, you can't compare
The two of them.

Let me tell you why --
-yeah, I want to hear it.

With music,
It's like a blank canvas.

You pretty much create
Everything from nothing.

You know what I mean?

Somebody gives you a beat,
But you create your own story,

Whatever you want to say on it,
And you just create that.

Now, with a movie,
If you're acting a part --

Unless you're
Kind of the director

And the writer
And the producer,

You're kind of
Just acting one part.

But with music,
You create something

From absolutely nothing.

So it's just hard for me
To compare those two.

But you love them both?

I absolutely --
I love them both, 100%.

Let's find out where
You want your fish.

Let's check the rest
Of the house out.

All right, before that,
Let me take you

To the living room, man.

The living room --
Let's do it.

You guys haven't been here --
I got to show you more things.

We got to check it out.

This view's
Unbelievable, though.

Yeah, man.
So this is the living room.

-nice. Nice.
-absolutely.

-I like it.
-you got to love it.

Wayde:
This is cool.

Hey, hey!
Don't touch that, man.

What?

You know, plastic
Over the furniture --

There's one room that nobody's
Really supposed to touch!

What's up
With the carpet?

This is that room, that --
As a matter of fact,

Back up
Just a little bit.

-all right.
-that's like the wooly mammoth.

Yeah, this room is pretty much
Just for show.

No one is supposed
To really come in here.

But my favorite part
Of the house --

As long as you don't
Touch the couch,

This is my favorite part
Right here.

You guys can come over here --
The bar.

-so, I got a question.
-yeah?

It -- it looks like
It's growing it's so long.

Yeah, man. That's --
We got that from a bear...

I like it.

...And then we spray
Painted his fur.

Did he really
Spray paint a bear?

Yeah,
He runs around the forest

When he's not
Making movies or music.

I really like --
This pretty clean line,

Very nice,
Very ultra-modern.

You did
A really good job, man.

I take pride,
I take pride.

I like this wood-grain
Structure.

-yeah.
-and I like the floor like that.

Absolutely.

Maybe we can do something
With the tank.

Yeah, I mean,
It's got the structure

All around the house,
So -- yeah.

Originally,
I would have loved the tank

To go somewhere
In here.

Like I said, this is my --
My favorite part.

You know whose got
One in his bar?

Wyclef.

-really?
-yeah.

Wyclef's got one that we
Actually refurbished it for him,

Hooked it up, and then
We built him another one...

Yeah.
-...On the other
Side of his bar,

But he's got one almost in
The exact same location.

I got a question.
You're in here.

-yeah, man.
-this is your favorite room.

-yeah.
-no one comes in here?

Watch --
Watch your hands.

I'm not touching.
But no one's in here?

-no, no, no.
-so you like to
Be alone in here?

So you don't like
People in here?

I don't like to be -- well,
It's actually my wife that says

Nobody can touch
Anything in here,

So that's why I'm so adamant
About you not touching anything.

So, when, like --
So outside of the movies,

You hang out with
Any of the crew from --

From "Furious 8"?

Oh, absolutely, man.
It's definitely family.

They don't come over
And chill on --

On the -- they can't
Sit on the furniture?

Hell no.
Nobody.

Not vin diesel,
Not dwayne johnson --

None of them
Can touch this room.

Trust me, when my
Wife says "Nobody"...

-nobody.
-...She means nobody.

-I got you.
-you don't understand.

-I'm talking about --
-oh, I understand.

Trust me,
He understands.

So, the fish tank's
Not going in here.

It's definitely
Not going in here.

-definitely not.
-nowhere close.

-all right.
-trust me.

So, let's find a place where
The fish tank's gonna be.

-all right.
-yeah, let's move on.

Come this way.

So, this is where I want
My fish tank to be.

Where?

Right here.

I've already started
Construction.

This is
What your wife gave you?

Let me tell you something --
Before she really --

She gave me, like,
Right here.

I had to fight
To get this.

I think you should step
Your game up a little.

Dude, you're ludacris.

I don't think it's the ludacris
Vibe he's looking for.

I think we got to change
Some things around, bro.

He wants that, like,
Kind of sexy vibe to it.

Sexy vibe?

This week, we're doing a tank

For none other than acclaimed
Rapper and actor, ludacris.

So this is where I want
My fish tank to be.

-where?
-right here.

Wayde: this is
What your wife gave you?

I think you should step
Your game up a little.

Dude, you're ludacris.

I kind of agree, because when
I come in my front door

The first thing that
I want to do is relax,

And what better way to relax
Than to come right in

To a fish tank, talk to my fish,
Tell them about my day.

So, what kind of fish
You talking?

You know, I think you can get
More exotic fish with saltwater,

So I'm thinking
A saltwater tank.

Matter of fact,
Since it's so small

Compared to all the rest
Of the damn tanks

That you guys do, you know
What I want you to do?

Give me extremely unique fish,
Because I'm a unique guy.

-okay.
-we can do that.

The fish can be ludicrous.

A matter of fact,
You can have some "Ludafish."

-ludafish.
-ludafish.

-I like that.
-I like that.

-let's do that.
-that's some unique stuff.

Put a bunch of ludafish
In there.

-you got it.
-nice.

But what about as far
As the interior?

Like, the coral --
-yeah. The corals, man.

I just -- just as long
As they're sexy.

-sexy corals.
-sexy corals.

Sexy coral?
Hmm.

So, not -- not too bright
Bright, but not too dull --

Just enough to relax you
When you walk in.

Sexy.

Sexy coral?

So, technically,
This area right here?

-that's it.
-okay.

That's all
The wife gave me.

Now, I got a question.
Speaking of marriage --

You know, I'm thinking about
Getting engaged, right?

Yeah.

And I heard something -- you got
Engaged on a plane or something?

So I took -- I actually own
A plane -- humbly speaking --

Took the plane up,

And as soon as we got
To a certain altitude,

I told her,
"Look out the window,"

And in the grass it had been cut
"Will you marry me?"

That's actually pretty cool,
But, you know,

Unfortunately,
I don't own a plane.

Maybe I could, like,
Get on delta,

And I can do it on,
Like, the ball field --

Like my local ball field
Or something.

You know what?
I might let you borrow my plane.

What you need to realize...
-okay.

...Things like this
Are gonna happen.

I'm -- my closet's
Gonna shrink --

Diminish, too,
When I get married.

You call it "Compromise."

It's not --
It's not really compromise.

-yeah.
-my wife's taken everything.

[ laughter ]

Brett: I mean, we definitely
Can do something,

But, I mean,
That's kind of --

I don't know what
We can do with that.

That's kind of small.

I mean --
-you guys better do something.

Here's the thing --
I'm a modest guy.

You know, I don't need
All the flash now.

I went through
That stage in my life.

That was, like, the first five
Years, first three albums.

You know, this is ludacris --
This is the father, the husband.

I'm not as crazy
As I used to be.

I just like
Modest stuff, man.

What if
We made it bigger?

What if we made it,
Like, past the wall?

Yeah, like extend it out
Or something?

Like, extend it out
A little bit,

At least, you know...

You know, I -- I wear the pants
In this household, right?

You do?

I mean, you know,
I work hard, right?

-uh-huh.
-I think --

I think I can fight to maybe
Get a little bit more --

Like, maybe we can --

Maybe we can get it out
To, like, right here.

Just --
Just here, though.

So, you know what
That's gonna do --

It's gonna give you three
Viewing panels instead of one.

Hell, yes.

Yeah, you can see it
From the couches there

Where you can't sit.
-right.

You can see it from the front
Door, and then right here.

I'm making a decision,
And I'm sticking with it.

There you go.

While you got that
Decision in mind,

We're gonna head
Back to vegas...

-we'll do a render.
-...Get you a rendering...

-yes.
-...And then we'll see you soon.

-all right.
-sounds good.

-all right, come on. Let's go.
-all right, be good.

For ludacris' in-home aquarium,
We'll place a 4-foot-tall

Rectangular tank
Upon a 3-foot-tall stand,

Fill it with
300 gallons of saltwater,

And dress up the inside
With a sexy coral insert.

We'll deck out the façade
With a wood grain

To match the rest of his home,

Complete it with a fan club
Of unique fish within,

And top it off
With some cool l.E.D. Lighting.

**

The shop is busy
Gluing ludacris' tank

And building
His sexy coral insert.

And I've got something
Pretty important

To take care of myself.

Hey!

-hey.
-I need some help.

-for what?
-I've been thinking about it.

It's been 6½ years,
And, uh, I think I'm ready

To take this to the next step
To be quite frank.

I think I'm ready
To go ring shopping.

You are?!

I really am --
I think it's finally time.

No!

Trisha and I have been together
For almost seven years.

We live together
And have a blended family.

She means the world to me,

And it's definitely time
To make it official.

And nothing would mean more to
Me than if you came with me.

Oh!
I would love to!

You want me to help you
With the style?

I want you to help me
With the style,

I want you to put it on,
I want to see how it fits.

You know, absolutely,
For sure.

You know, I'm really good
At shopping for stones.

Dudes, we're talking about --
Stones for, like,

Someone's finger,
Not for, like, my pond.

Look, I'm really excited.
I want to go get this done asap.

So could you meet me after
Work before I get cold feet?

-absolutely.
-all right, I'm excited.

-you're not gonna get cold feet.
-all right.

I'll see you later,
All right?

Okay.
-all right. I'll see you then.

Yay!
Are you excited?

I'm disappointed I didn't get
To go ring shopping.

-hello.
-hi, guy.

-hello!
-how you doing?

I'm doing great.
Congratulations.

[ both laugh ]

What a beautiful couple.

-redneck.
-hey.

Wayde:
How we doing?

I think okay.

Is this ludacris'?

Yeah.

So, you're more
Than halfway there.

Yeah.

You know -- you know
When you know somebody

And you meet somebody you get
That vibe, you know what I mean?

I think it's the ludacris vibe
He's looking for.

I think we got to
Change some things around, bro.

The ludacris vibe?

He doesn't want it to be, like,
Really ostentatious with cars

And any
Of this crazy stuff.

He wants to get away from
The "Fast and furious."

He wants to get away from
The singing, the crazy ludacris.

You're -- you're saying that
We need to change something,

But you're really not telling me
What we need to do to it yet.

He wants it
To feel sexy.

He wants that, like,
Kind of sexy vibe to it.

You know what I mean?

Sexy vibe?

I think we need
Some swim-throughs

With some corals on it.

I think we should maybe just
Dress it up some more

So you get
Some corals around,

Maybe some different colors,
But not too, too crazy.

Have you ever heard somebody use
So many words and say so little?

And -- and a real
Important thing

Is just the way this
Thing's gonna light up.

You know when you light
Something up, you feel it?

Yeah.

No.

Lighting adds sex to things
Sometimes, you know what I mean?

If it's blah --

So let's do this --

Let's grab some corals,
Let's get some lights,

We'll do testing
Inside the break room,

We'll shut the lights off,

And you'll see
What I'm talking about.

I highly doubt it.

All right?

You and your sexy vibe.

It's not me.
It's ludacris.

This is
What he really wants.

-you got it?
-I got it. You got it?

I got it.

All right, hold on.

Okay,
So check this out.

All right,
Shut the lights off.

Okay, so now let's place
Some corals, see how this looks.

Get that in here.

Now, you're gonna have shadows
For certain corals,

You know
What I'm saying?

You see how this was, like,
A very light purple?

But now look at it --
It's -- it's enhancing it, bro.

It's gives the shadow
Effect to it.

This doesn't look that good
Over here, right?

-mm-hmm.
-look at that.

That's a big difference
On the light, bro.

That's a boring coral
Like you.

That's a sexy coral
Like me.

You see the difference?
You see what light did?

You may have revealed
Your halloween costume

Just a little early.

Like,
This one right here --

I like the size of this
And the shape,

But I don't like the color,

So we're not gonna do
That color.

Definitely this one -- you can
See, like, purples and blues.

That --
That's sexy, bro.

-all right.
-you know what I'm saying?

But what you're actually saying
Is some of the stuff

That I have on there,

I'm gonna have to take off and
Replace it with other things.

Yes.
You got to feel that vibe.

You see wh-- this is
What I'm talking about.

I see the difference
With the lights.

Okay.

I can do it, I just had to get
Your interpretation of sexy.

Sexy vibe.

You and your sexy vibe
Is really creeping me out.

I'm going back
To work.

**

**

-hello.
-hello.

Hello, welcome.

So, we're here looking
For an engagement ring.

Oh, nice.
Congratulations.

[ laughs ]
Wait!

She'd think
I'd marry...

Most of these rings that we have
In the case are custom-made.

Wow.
That's pretty cool.

Agnes:
Hey, look at these.

Please have a seat.

Those are sparkly, huh?

Yeah, those are
Definitely sparkly.

-oh, yes.
-oh, yeah.

-this is a nice, wide --
-a band like that?

Yeah, see, I like something
Very similar to that.

So very similar setting
Would be, actually, this band.

Wow, that's nice.
That's really nice.

Now, if we can make that wider,
That would be awesome.

You want it bigger
Than this?

It's just 6½ years,
It's been.

That is a long time
To put up with you.

-hello.
-hi, guy.

-how you doing?
-hello!

-doing great.
-how are you?

Congratulations.

Now he thinks
We're a couple?

What's wrong
With these people?

-okay.
-what a beautiful couple.

-well...Yes.
-thank you.

Yes, we are beautiful,
But it's not --

We're not the couple.
-no!

-oh.
-I'm just helping him.

Yes.
Agnes is my work wife.

So you've got expertise
To help you make the selection.

-exactly.
-yes.

So what we want to do
Is we want to use --

Have this band,

And we wanted to have a round
Stone with a square halo.

We want to know
If that's something you guys

Could accomplish.

No problem whatsoever.

We have our
Custom-design department,

And they'll take over
And produce

A beautiful model for you
To approve, then we're done.

-awesome. I'm excited.
-perfect.

-that's great.
-I'll be right back.

-great, great.
-okay.

How do you feel?
-I feel good.

I'm gonna have
A surprise party next week.

I mean, the whole
Family's coming in.

I mean, everybody's flying in --
Everybody.

-next week?
-yeah, next saturday.

Wayde and heather
Are out that weekend.

I didn't know they were
Going anywhere.

They didn't say
Anything to me.

-I'll be there.
-I'm excited.

**

**

Careful -- don't be hitting me
With that thing.

Don't worry about it.
Wayde!

With you
I always have to worry.

Ludacris wants his tank
To be modern and sexy,

Kind of like the style
Of his house,

So I asked the girls
To pick out some mood lighting.

We got luda's light.

-you got what?
-we got luda's light.

Now it's time to see
What they do.

His house is really cool.

His pool lights up blue,
It lights up the whole backyard,

And it's badass.

So, luda, what he wanted to do
After his hard day

And everything going on,

When he comes in his front door,
Voilà, he wanted to relax.

So he wants this to be sexy.

We got sexy blue lighting.

Lay it up here.
I want to see what this does.

It's super cool.

Agnes: all right, so we got
To put the power on.

-okay.
-that's the blue.

Well, I like the blue
Because it matches the pool.

Well -- and there's dims
To a different tint of blue.

-hit it again.
-oh, I see what you're saying.

Yeah, yeah.

You could change
The brightness.

So if he's feeling real excited,
It could be bright blue.

Exactly.

If he's feeling really relaxed,
He can do a light blue.

Right.
So now here comes the cool part.

Do you have your phone
On you by any chance?

-yeah.
-play a song.

Look there it goes! See?
-do you see it dancing?

It's dancing to the sound.

Well, I wouldn't
Call that "Dancing."

I'd call that
"Flickering."

Dancing's, like,
Moving, you know?

That's how you dance.

When you're dancing,
You're like...

That's not how I dan--
How do you girls dance?

Show me how you dance.
-want us to dance?

What, so you can copy
Our dance moves?

You just have to just
Move to the music.

No one's gonna want
To copy that.

-hey!
-hey!

I need a cocktail.

You definitely don't
Want any coffee.

All right,
Forget it, forget it.

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

Ludacris was born "Chris,"

But he created a name
That better fit his personality.

Find out after the break.

Brett: the answer is "A" --
Siamese fighting fish.

Aquarium owners beware -- due to
Its extreme territorial nature,

Two males left
In a tank together

Will fight until
One of them's dead.

Talk about fast and furious.

**

-ready to shop for ludacris?
-I'm so excited to shop for him.

-aww, sea horses.
-hey, ricky!

-hi, ricky!
-hey. How are you guys doing?

-how are you?
-how are you doing?

-nice to see you again.
-nice to see you.

Nice to have you back.

Look at you
With the sea horses.

What's going on over here?

Oh, this is
Brazilian sea horses.

Interesting animals --
You know that the males

Are the one
That carries the baby.

-no way! Really?
-yeah.

I didn't know that.

We should be sea horses --
Let the men do the work.

So, what brings
You guys here today?

We're doing a tank for actor
And musician ludacris.

Wow. Wow, that's amazing.
That's great.

We love ludacris.

Everybody does.

-right?
-yeah.

We're doing a tank that's going
In the entry of his home...

-okay.
-...And it's, like, 300 gallons.

So we want some fish
To kind of represent him.

-got it.
-the fish need some pop.

Oh, yeah.
Definitely.

Let's go take a look at it.
-yes.

* move fish *

* get out the way *

* get out the way *

* move, fish *

**

Agnes: this guy!
Luda needs this guy!

-that's a mandarin goby.
-look how cool it is --

It's flashy and moody
At the same time.

That fish
Is beyond gorgeous.

I love the mandarin goby.

But, unfortunately, those guys
Have to go in a live reef tank.

Oh, come on.

Ricky: that's the problem
With this fish.

We call them
Mandarin gobys,

But they're actually
Not gobys at all.

They just have
A similar body shape.

-oh, they're not?
-no.

So they're -- they belong
To a different group

Of a family called
Dragonets.

So they're --
They're mandarin dragonets,

But they're body shape
Is just like a goby,

So we refer it a goby.

They're really
Beautiful fish,

But they need a very mature tank
To thrive in it.

It's very difficult
To feed these guys.

They only eat
Zooplanktons.

Your pods -- your antipode
And your copepods,

Which generally grows
In a very mature tank,

A tank that has been running
For a very long time.

Like, you see the blue
Around its tail?

Like, that's so awesome.

Yeah, it looks like
It's painted.

Yeah. It's, like,
Very artistic, right?

-yes.
-and like ludacris, you think?

-aw, that sucks.
-all right.

That's a beautiful fish.

Well, show us some ones
We can put in the tank.

Good choice, though,
Agnes.

I know.
That guy was cute.

-oh, look at that fish!
-now this is a fish --

I think it's a great fish
For the ludacris tank.

-whoa!
-I love that fish.

Agnes: look at that thing.

It's unique, it pops,
It's got glitter everywhere.

That's correct.
This is a goldflake angel.

It is so beautiful.
The colors really pop.

Look at those lips.

They're purple lips.

Will the gold spots go away
The older they get,

Or do they --
-no.

They actually look very good
As juveniles as well as adults,

Which is very different from all
The other angels that we know.

These are the ones
That actually retain

Much of their characteristics.
Beautiful fish.

So how do you tell if they're
A juvenile or an adult.

Just the size --
They will grow bigger.

How big?

They grow to a max size of about
10 inches, give or take.

It really is unique,
Isn't it?

It's awesome.

I am loving the colors
On this fish.

It definitely pops.

It's like party in the front
And business in the back.

-yeah.
-right?

I love it.

I think luda is gonna die
For this fish.

It is, like,
A masterpiece.

-right.
-it really is.

What else we got?

**

Whoa!
Look at this guy.

Wow!
What is that?

It's a pineapple trigger.

Pineapple trigger?

Yeah, it's a --
It's a lighter-color trigger.

Why is it a pineapple
Referenced in it?

Once it grows
A little bit older,

It's gonna get
A nice yellow,

Light yellow color on it,
A pineapple color to it, so...

It's a beautiful fish.

Do you see that little trigger
That's going on on top?

It's basically for
The triggerfish

To go wedge itself
In between rocks,

And then it just locks in --
That --

That little fin, the dorsal fin,
It locks in place

And keep the fish
Stuck into the crevasse.

So if a predator comes
And tries to grab it outside,

They can't get it out.

-it's like a hook.
-yeah, it's like a hook.

-what?!
-I've never seen this trigger.

I'm so excited right now.
I love it.

It's a very active fish.

It's gonna get big.
-how big?

It'll probably get about
8 to 10 inches,

So it's gonna be
A big triggerfish.

And they're hearty.

Very hearty fish.

What do they eat?

In the wild, they'll eat
All kinds of crustaceans,

Anything with a shell --
They love to eat that.

Mollusks -- snails, crabs,
Pretty much everything.

The colors are
Very subtle,

But yet when you go
Up close to it

They're very intricate.

Very -- there's a lot
Of detail to the fish.

And you know
What's amazing?

It's, like, we've been
Doing this for so long,

But no matter how long
You're doing it

There's just always something

New to see and learn,
And I love that.

Right, and they're still
Discovering newer species,

So every day
There is something new.

I'm super excited
For this one.

All right, what else
Do we have for luda?

Whoa!
Look at this guy.

Ricky: this is
Another butterflyfish --

Zoster butterflyfish.

-look at those spikes!
-wow!

Wait, what kind of
Butterfly is that?

It's a zoster
Butterflyfish.

-z-- say it again?
-zoster.

Zoster.

It's also called
A black pyramid butterflyfish,

Because, you see,
It's a black fish,

And it has that little
White pyramid thing

Going on in its body.

They grow a little bit bigger --
About six inches,

And they're one
Of the rarer butterflyfish,

So we don't get to
See them that much.

-it's beautiful.
-look at the -- the top.

It looks like it has
A blonde mohawk.

Doesn't it?
-yes!

A butterflyfish is a good fish
For a fish-only tank.

For a reef tank,
Not so much,

Because they will feast
On all the corals.

Where do you find
These guys?

They are mostly near
The indian ocean.

Oh.

Beautiful fish --
Always on the move,

And you can put a bunch
Of them together,

So that's the best thing.

-I love it.
-I love all of them.

I think luda is definitely
Gonna be wow'd by these fish.

Yeah.

**

-redneck.
-yeah?

-how we doing?
-with what?

The insert.

It's drying.

-it's still wet?
-yeah.

This looks good.
Look at that. That's sexy, huh?

I like that, bro.

That's gonna look great
On the lighting.

You got the swim-throughs.
That's perfect.

We'll take the finished
Insert outside

So it dries faster in the sun.

Too fast.

Fast and furious!

Redneck:
What the [bleep]?

**

Yo, yo, yo, yo.
Guys!

-yo, what's up, luda?
-you're making a lot of noise.

I kind of need you guys to just
Get the hell out of the house.

We were just about done
With ludacris' insert

To be ready to ship out in
The morning, and this happens.

Too fast!
"Fast and furious!"

Redneck:
What the [bleep]?

Disaster.

Great, "Fast and furious"
Over here

Is driving
100 miles an hour --

...Rolled through
With his horn.

This is great.
Get out of the truck now!

Get out.

You're flying like a madman,

And now we' ruined
The whole insert.

Can't believe you guys.

This is not sexy.

We got a deadline.

Both of youse is staying late.
We're getting this done tonight.

Let's go. Park the truck,
Clean this up, get inside.

In all the years
Of building tanks,

We've never broken
An insert like this before.

This is nuts.

It's gonna cost us a lot of time
And also a lot of money.

The guys spent the entire night

Fixing and rebuilding
Parts of the insert.

This set us back hours,

But finally we were
Packed up and off to l.A.

Yeah,
Way later than expected.

Mm.

Cut it in a little bit.

We need to work fast if we're
Gonna get this tank in tonight.

All right, guys, listen -- it's
Late, his family's in the house.

We got to get this in,

And we got to do this
Pretty quick, okay?

So let's all work together
And be quiet

And try to get
Everything in, all right?

-all right.
-come on, guys. Let's go.

Brett:
We could lift and carry it.

-I got it.
-all right, beautiful.

Wayde:
Grab the tail, guys.

All right, let's get
The tank in. Let's go.

One, two, three.

Jeremy, just go down
A little bit.

Just go down a hair.

Okay.
We're on the cart.

Now keep pushing.
Here we go.

Keep it going.
Now push towards me, guys.

Hold the cart, jeremy.
Push.

-okay, we're on the cart.
-all right, good.

Let's roll it in.
Come on.

Okay, let me just lift up
The bottom here, guys.

Wayde:
Yep.

Ready?

And in. Good.
Jack it up.

[ baby crying ]

Wait.

**

All right, slide it
On the stand.

All right, here we go.
Nice and easy.

Let's get the cart
Out of here.

-yo, yo, yo, yo. Guys.
-yo, what's up, luda?

I'm trying to put my kids
To sleep right now, man.

You making a lot of noise.

You know how to sing.
Rock a bye, baby.

No, no, no.
I can do that, but --

You can come back tomorrow.

You can finish everything
Once I get home from work.

-tomorrow?
-I guess we're sleeping over.

Right now I kind of
Need you guys

To just get the hell
Out of the house.

Got it.
Got it.

I'm trying to say that
In the nicest way possible.

Why do you laugh
When he yells at us?

'cause that's his thing.

His thing is we got to
Get out of his house right now.

Let's get the cart out.

We'll move this,
And then we'll get out, okay?

-okay. Please do that.
-sounds good.

Yeah, you got, like,
Maybe 60 seconds or so.

-all right. Quick.
-okay, good.

-see you tomorrow.
-all right. Yeah.

Come on, get the cart out, guys.
You heard the man.

Hey.
40 seconds.

Pull that end over it.
Come on.

30 seconds.

-let's go. Let's go.
-10 seconds!

5, 4, 3, 2...

That's what I thought.

All: surprise!

[ cheers and applause ]

Trisha...

We're back at ludacris' house
To finish the tank install.

We got a lot of work
To do today.

We've got the cabinet guys
Coming in, we got the plumbing,

We got to drill, so let's roll.

The plumbing for this tank
Is gonna be

Located outside the home.

It would've been too noisy
To drill the holes last night,

So it's gonna be our
First task this morning.

Hey, what's up, kyle?
-hey, buddy boy.

Kyle: we've got
Our pilot holes here.

I'm about to stab
These two holes through

For our 1½-inch pipe.

Are we gonna enclose all this
And hide it in camouflage?

Absolutely. I've got a cool
Little crate design

That I'm gonna build for him and
Paint it up to match the house.

All right, is there any way
We can possibly extend the crate

A little bit and cover
The power box.

Yeah, absolutely.

I don't want a kid walking by,
Unplugging it,

And, you know,
Having a problem.

-yep.
-all right, this looks good.

Beautiful.

Let's finish it up
And get plumbing going.

Here we go.

**

**

Beautiful.

So, let's get the plumbing
Through here.

We'll plumb this up,
And we're ready to go.

Sounds good, buddy.

With the plumbing being run,

We can turn our focus
Back to the tank.

-how we looking?
-ready for sand, big guy.

Ready for sand --
Magic words.

I love nature's ocean.

All right.
A lot easier to do it this way.

Don't hurt yourself.

Sand's in?
-sand's in.

Let me have the clip.

Beautiful.
All right.

Hold it right there.

Let her rip!

**

It's time for the stars
Of the tank.

Are we ready for fish?
-everything's ready.

All right -- first ludafish
You got is a pinktail trigger.

Pinktail trigger

How big does it get?
-eight inches.

All right, let's get him
Into his tank.

Ah, he's checking it
Out already.

Look at him.
He woke right up.

There you go, buddy.

I love their fins, how they
Look like they're gliding.

What do we got next, b?

Next -- goldflake angel.

Dude, that guy's beautiful.
Look at him.

He's got gold flakes
On the body with blue lips.

I love the gold flake.

All right, big guy,
Let's get in the tank.

There you go, buddy.

Check it out.

Ludacris is gonna love
That guy.

All right, b.

Last but not least,
My favorite fish.

Oh, boy.

Here we go --
Clown trigger.

Oh, that's definitely
A ludafish.

Let's get the clown
In the tank.

All right,
Let's get him into his home.

Look at the markings
On this guy.

It's beautiful.
He's ready to go in.

Oh, you see the little
Shimmer there?

There he goes.
Beautiful.

All the fish are in --
Let's wrap this up, clean this,

I'll get the lids on,

And then we'll get ready
To show it off.

-sounds good.
-all right. Here, catch.

You left fingerprints
On it!

Good enough!

No, it's not!
It's got to be perfect.

All right, ready?

That's fine.
Luda, come on in!

Hell, yeah!

That's what
I'm talking about, man!

I like that, I like it.

You would think you actually do
This for a living or something.

I absolutely
Love it, man.

This is everything
I was talking about.

It's sophisticated, it's sexy,
It's relaxation --

Everything that I want
When I come in the front door.

I know you guys do a lot of very
Complex, very extreme tanks,

But this is everything
I was looking for, man.

Less is
A hell of a lot more.

You have 300 gallons here.

This is not a little tank.

There are over 3,000 pounds
Sitting right here.

3,000 pounds.

Now you have a bunch
Of different wood in the house

From the floors
To the cabinetry.

We wanted to get it
To match right in,

So if you look at the kitchen
And the flow, the way it comes,

All the cabinetry and everything
Matches all the way through.

Coordinate.

We coordinated so your wife
Would be happy, too.

Yeah, yeah.
I like that.

Brett: so we worked with redneck
To make the corals,

And we told him
That we wanted it sexy.

I was a little hesitant
To give it to redneck

When the word "Sexy" came up.

He actually made the corals
Kind of cool-looking.

These are all molded off
Of real pieces of coral.

Wow.

And we didn't
Go over the top.

Like we said, there's nothing
Fast, nothing furious.

There's nothing crazy
In there.

Yeah, man.

But most importantly,
What we wanted to stand out,

Which was very important to you,

Was having unique,
Exotic ludafish.

I see all the unique fish
That I was asking for.

I see ludafish.

I see the clown triggerfish,
I see a hawkfish,

I see the pinktail triggerfish,
The squirrelfish.

I see all the different fish
I can have conversations with.

I feel like
They're listening to me now.

It's perfect.
-awesome.

So, I'm gonna tell you
A little bit about

Some really interesting
Fish in here that...

That's what I want to know,
'cause I only recognize

About a third
Of them in there,

So I want to be
Educated, as well.

The big one in there, that's
Called a pineapple trigger.

It has pink on its face,

And it's also called
The face trigger

Because the face looks
Like a human face.

-really?
-yeah, it's pretty cool.

He's a pretty rare
Trigger.

-absolutely.
-you don't see much of that.

You also have
A coral hogfish.

These guys are great to have
Inside the aquarium,

Because they're parasite eaters,
So what they're gonna do

Is they're actually gonna
Clean some of the fish

And eat some of
The parasites off of them.

Nice.

Freckled hawkfish -- that guy
Right there has no swim bladder.

I was about to say he's been
Chilling there

The whole damn time
We've been talking.

Yeah, so you're gonna see these
Guys perching around a lot.

You're gonna see them
Perching on the coral,

Perching down in the sand.

'cause they have
No swim bladder,

They can only swim
A short distance,

And then they actually
Have to rest.

Damn.

Also, too, in here is
A true black volitan lion,

And the reason
That's so rare

Is because they're hard to find
When they're true black.

And he's gonna grow
Pretty quick.

Their spines are venomous,

So you never want to go
Inside the aquarium

Because they could
Send you to the hospital.

Man, not only
Do I enjoy it,

I am learning something
New every day.

You wanted smooth,
You wanted sexy,

So we also added
Some lighting in to match,

Like, the pool, so you got
That look going through, so --

Oh, really.

You got a little remote,

So if you're here
And your friends come over

Or if you want to relax,
Just push the remote --

Aw, man.
That's it.

That's what
I'm talking about.

That's the sexy part
Right there.

I don't think it can get
Much sexier than that.

And since you love music
So much, what we did

Is we put a little light
In there that works to the beat.

You push the button...

There you go.

Hmm.

Sexy.
-this is a unique...

I like that.

Let me see -- let me see
If you guys got rhythm.

Let me see you bounce
Your heads to it.

We definitely
Don't have rhythm.

Oh, man.

What -- what beat are you
Nodding your head to, my guy?

Can you please stop?

Fish tanks.
That's what we do.

All right, all right.

I love that, though.
I love that.

So, what do you think?

You guys did
A wonderful job.

Thank you, guys.
-you like it?

Eight years,
But you made up for it.

Tell the general
I'm very thankful.

You know what they say -- "Good
Things come to those who wait."

Yeah, but eight years?
I don't know.

That's too --

Talk to the general, man.

Tell him since you guys
Did such a damn good job,

We might have to do
Another one of my houses

In another region
Of the world.

-let's do it.
-let's do it, for sure.

It's mesmerizing.

There you go.

Psht.

Wow.

Yo, we got to get
Out of here, dude?

Yeah, we got to roll.
Yo.

-enjoy it, all right?
-enjoy it, bro.

Be good, all right.

Come on, let's go.
-all right, man.

He loves it, dude.
Look.

That's great.

Brett: rapper and actor ludacris
Got tanked this week...

Hell, yeah!

...With his new 8-foot-tall
Aquarium.

At 3,000 pounds,
This rectangular tank houses

A crowd of cool and unique
Saltwater fish.

And with custom
L.E.D. Lighting,

Luda will have
A relaxing new view

In his
Hollywood hills home.

I've been with my girlfriend
Trisha chamberlain

For six years,

And today I'm gonna
Ask her to marry me.

I am actually setting up
A surprise party,

I flew in all of her
Family and friends,

But not only that -- this is
Where we had our first date.

General:
I'm really excited about it.

I can't wait to see her face,
His face, and see what goes on.

She's coming, she's coming.
Shh! Shh!

All: surprise!

* would you say yes? *

* and if I reached
For your heart *

* would you say yes? *

So, for the last six years,
I've gotten to wake up

To the most beautiful person
On the outside.

And not only that,

You're the most beautiful person
On the inside.

You made me a better person
Over the last six years,

And I can't thank you
Enough for that.

I can't tell you
How much I love you,

And I really want to spend
The rest of my life with you.

[ laughs ]
Trisha...

Will you marry me?
Yes!

**

Trisha:
Brett told me we're coming here

For a friend's surprise
Birthday party,

And then I walked into
All of this craziness --

All of our friends
And family.

It was really exciting.

I'm so glad
To see you, too!

Hi, sutton!.
-what's up?

Hi!

Brett: you know, I'm so excited
Just to go celebrate

With my friends and my family

And, most of all, my best friend
And my new fiancée.

* and if I reached
For your heart *

* would you say yes? *

Let me see the ring.

Oh, my --
-isn't it amazing?

It's beautiful.

The ring is amazing.

I cannot stop staring
At my finger.

But most of all,
I just love brett so much,

And I'm just so excited.

I love you, too.
