Ep 8. Where the Wild Things Are

In Tanked season 2 episode 8, titled "Where the Wild Things Are," the team at Acrylic Tank Manufacturing (ATM) is tasked with creating a unique and challenging aquarium for a new client. The episode begins with Wayde and Brett brainstorming ideas for the tank and eventually settling on a design inspired by the client's love for African wildlife.

The client, named Shannon, presents the team with a number of challenges. She has a large collection of rare and exotic animals, including a number of snakes, lizards, and even a pair of white lions. She also wants the tank to be visible from multiple angles, so that she can enjoy it from her living room as well as her outdoor patio.

Despite these challenges, Wayde and Brett set to work on creating an impressive tank that will be both functional and visually stunning. They begin by building a large, custom-made tank that will be able to accommodate Shannon's various creatures, as well as a number of African-themed decorations.

The team also decides to incorporate a unique filtration system that will keep the tank clean and healthy for all of the animals. This involves building a series of interconnected chambers that will cycle water through a variety of filters and chemical treatments.

As the build progresses, the team faces several setbacks, including difficulty transporting some of the more dangerous animals and the discovery of a leak in the tank. However, they are able to overcome these challenges and complete the project on time.

When Shannon first sees the finished tank, she is ecstatic. She immediately recognizes the various African-themed decorations, including a tribal mask and a replica of an African tree. She is also impressed by the size of the tank, which is much larger than she expected.

The animals also seem to love their new home, swimming and basking in the warm water. The team is proud of their work and happy to have made another happy customer.

Overall, Tanked season 2 episode 8 is a fun and exciting look at the challenges of building a custom aquarium. From the initial design process to the final reveal, viewers will be captivated by the creativity and talent of the ATM team.
