Fish Tank Kings

The team must transform a Volkswagen Minibus into a fish tank for a local car dealer. Engineering a tank that will weigh 4,000 pounds when filled with saltwater and fish is the hardest task they have attempted so far. Meanwhile, fish geek Francis is looking for an assistant. Soon, he puts potential candidate Heather to the test by giving her a quiz on fish species, having her go on a deep-sea dive and having her perform a risky surgical procedure on a venomous fish. Will she make it?

The team has been commissioned to revive a showcase aquarium. They must create a seascape that mirrors a sea turtle's natural habitat. However, the tank's marine life, including sharks and stingrays cannot be removed from the premises, so someone will have to swim with the carnivores. Then one tough client wants three tanks in one, completed in a fraction of the time the crew allots for such complex projects. When Heather takes over, the team fears they may lose the job. Will she succeed?

Ben must install a pair of outsized fish tanks around a fireplace at a private residence in Orlando. This proves to be challenging for Ben, and if he can't pull it off it will jeopardize the company's reputation and make it impossible for the family to move into their home. Meanwhile, Mat goes to Chicago to work on a terrarium for an amphibian known as the Panamanian Golden Frog-a rare animal on the brink of extinction. If the tank isn't perfect, the survival of the species could be at risk.

Francis decides to bring his lady friend to work and make her a tank full of live coral. Meanwhile, a huge client has commissioned the team with an incredible project at Grand Cayman. The tension mounts for Francis when Mat forbids him to spend his professional time to work on the tank for Lauren and sends him to Grand Cayman to oversee the project. Things only get harder when the team misses items whose absence will prevent them from completing the biggest project ever. Will they make it?

Jose goes to meet with a client who wants a temporary aquarium built and installed in only two weeks. He is confronted with a difficult decision: should he give in to their requests, which might cost him his job, or install the temporary tank for the famous client who might bring his team favorable publicity? Meanwhile, Ben and Francis visit Orlando, Fla., to perform a total reef makeover. If anything goes wrong with this tight deadline, this house of cards is going to come tumbling down.

Orthodontist Dr. Kawa has a simple request for the new addition to his waiting room aquarium: something "that no one has ever seen before." Jose and the guys have an idea, and it involves a "mermaid's purse." Using shark eggs that are rarely seen in fish tanks, Jose performs a surgical procedure of his own to create something truly unique. Then, the team is hired by one of the largest pet fish suppliers in South Florida to build a tank perfect for underwater gardening, or "aquascaping."

The FTKs are hired to create something completely unique: an African lake re-created in a tank swarming with freshwater cichlids and topped off with an African sausage tree. Jose has never seen a tree like this and worries that his replica might bring the entire project crashing to the ground. Meanwhile, setbacks plague a construction project to build a brand new, state-of the-art quarantine facility that will allow the Kings to provide a variety of fish to their clients.

The South Florida Science Museum enlists the help of the Fish Tank Kings to redesign 14 massive tanks! In addition to the sheer size of the job, the team will also be challenged to build something they've never built before: a canal exhibit, complete with invasive species such as pacu and snakehead. The pressure is on - the team at Living Color has just two months to finish the biggest, most intensive and most impressive job they've ever done.
