nice looking RBTA is he still on his "walk about"?
Mr. Wilson,
A note as to a tip you posted a while back: I tilted the MH light on the 50 gallon back away from the front glass about 5 degrees or so from level. I have not had to clean the glass in 4 weeks. Now, in all fairness, I have also increased skimming to be more wet, but I think your tip is the main reason for the cleanliness. I will do this on every tank with point source lighting from now on.
Thanks!
Fts! Fts! Fts! Please!!!!
With the light angled back you won't have to vacuum the carpet in front of that tank now either.
The book will include all of these trade secrets that cost nothing to carry out and make a world of difference. I just wish they had a book like that when I was stating up.
The new show ATM is doing is called "Tank"... should be very cool.
Looking forward to pictures Peter. Great build and I can tell you are truly dedicated to perfecting this hobby.
Keep it up and Happy New Year! :beer:

These are not your typical fish tanks. And these are not your typical fish tank builders. Welcome to the world of TANKED! Acrylic Tank Manufacturing (ATM), owned by Brett King and Wayde Raymer, is not only the most successful, but probably the most outrageous tank manufacturer in America. They are brother-in-laws, business partners, best friends, and constant rivals. Joined by Wayde’s wife Heather, and Brett’s father, “The General”, this is one big dysfunctional family. Housed in a “State of the Art” 13,000 sq. ft. facility located in the center of Las Vegas, every year, ATM takes on more than 200 projects. They build tanks inside restaurants, casinos, banks, hotels, museums and zoos from 50 to 50,000 gallons in size. They build tanks for celebrities and ordinary Joes. They’ve created tanks in the shape of pyramids, spheres hexagons, and even, the female anatomy. They are filled with the most exotic…and dangerous fish around. Their business is fish, and business is good.
Mr Wilson since you give such expert advice I got a question for you. I water changes necessary on on any marine system? If one has to have the best regarding biological filteration and supplement additives to the tank such as trace elements. Im a firm believer in doing water changes. In one of the south African forums a guy told me he did not one in 8 years. The other guy say he supplements additives instead of doing water changes.

I googled this and the article was dated April of last year and said they were filming the pilot in May (of last year). I wonder if this has been shelved or has been put on the back burner...... Another site shows it as replaced with another show. It was set to air last October according to what I'm reading....
Does anyone have any other info???
Mr. Wilson (Shawn)
That is probably one of the most impactful posts of this thread. The last paragraph is very well heard from this end. Thanks and hats off to you and the team.....and everyone else who has participated in this thread.
Making two changes to my tank based on this.........
When I spoke to Brett at ATM a month ago he said that the show was coming out soon. He didn't specify if it had been picked up by a network yet. These things take time.
