Excellent interview with the 2 guy hosts. Hope some more of you saw it.
They showed pictures of several of their projects, and explained that their show is about the building and installation of the giant custom tanks worth lots and lots more money than any of us will ever spend. They then gave Jimmy a tank they custom built just for him, made from plexiglass to look like a guitar. It was a smaller tank, like a size to place on a stand or table. One we might afford. But their goal on the show still appears to be towards the giant tanks. Interesting, but not on our level.

Any body old enough to remember the PBS shows years back with Paul Spiece called "Guppies to Groupers" ? Now that was geared to what we would be interested in.
That collection can still be purchased, but is several hundred dollars now.
