The episode titled "Real Aquariums of Beverly Hills" is the thirteenth episode of the eleventh season of the popular TV show Tanked. Throughout the series, two brothers-in-law, Wayde King and Brett Raymer, design and build custom aquatic exhibits for high-profile clients.
In this episode, the team heads to Beverly Hills to create luxurious aquariums for a wealthy real estate developer. The client wants a large saltwater aquarium for his office and a smaller one for his home. The challenge for the team is to create aquariums that match the client's opulent taste and lifestyle.
The first steps for the team are to take the necessary measurements of the spaces and get an idea of the aesthetic preferences of the client. The client informs the team that he wants the aquariums to be the centerpiece of each room, with extravagant lighting and intricate designs. This information guides the team's design choices.
Wayde and Brett decide that the office aquarium will be an impressive 14-foot-long, 5-foot-tall, and 4-foot-wide masterpiece of glass and water. The aquarium will feature a unique octagonal shape and be comprised of six panel sections. The team will also construct a custom filtration system to ensure that the water quality is top-notch.
The client's home aquarium will be a more modest 8-foot-long and 4-foot-tall aquarium that will resemble a piece of elegant furniture. The design features custom shelves behind the aquarium to display the client's treasured possessions.
The team faces some challenges along the way, including difficulties in transporting the massive aquarium panels and some minor issues with the filtration system. However, they eventually overcome these obstacles and create two stunning aquariums that impress both the client and the team.
In the end, the client is thrilled with the final products and amazed by the craftsmanship and attention to detail displayed by the Tanked team. He even showcases his new aquariums at a grand party he throws for his friends.
Overall, the "Real Aquariums of Beverly Hills" episode showcases the Tanked team's commitment to creating custom aquariums that not only meet but exceed their clients' expectations. The team's creativity, attention to detail, and dedication to their craft are evident in every step of the design and build process.
