CELEBRITIES
Wayde King, Star of Animal Planet’s Tanked
Wayde King's love of fish began at an early age. Born and raised in Long Island, NY, Wayde’s
earliest memories are of his mother and biological father, who was a
fish dealer, and the multiple tanks they had in the basement of his
home. Today, Wayde continues in the family business,
designing and manufacturing some of the largest and most extravagant
acrylic tanks in the world. When it comes to fish, Wayde is
an expert and a perfectionist. With more than 34 years in the business,
his goal is to not only keep the customer happy, but the fish as well.
Brett Raymer, Star of Animal Planet’s Tanked
Brett Raymer is Wayde King’s partner and COO of Acrylic Tank Manufacturing. There
isn’t a fish tank big enough to hold his larger-than-life ideas and
personality. Originally from Brooklyn, NY, Brett is always ready to take
on a new business venture so he jumped at the opportunity to help his
family create their tank-building dream in Las Vegas. Known for his
ability to wheel and deal and his somewhat impulsive confidence, Brett
has brought Wayde some of his most loyal clients.
About the Show, Tanked
Following the antics of two brothers-in-law as they run the largest aquarium manufacturing company in the nation, Tanked
immerses viewers in the high-decibel, family-owned business of Acrylic
Tank Manufacturing (ATM). Led by business partners, best friends (and
often rivals) Wayde King and Brett Raymer,
this 13,000 square foot tank building facility, located in Las Vegas,
produces some of the most outrageous, larger-than-life and one-of-a-kind
tanks for some of the most unusual fish and unique clients around.
ATM
has created tanks to look like pyramids, spheres, phone booths, cars,
kegs, the female anatomy and much more. Working with opinionated and
outrageous family and staff, the show reveals the stress, success, and
sometimes dysfunction of a family business that has been running strong
for 14 years. Tanked brings the secrets of the underwater
world to the surface with a comedic twist, leaving viewers bemused and
captivated with each project from conception to final reveal.
One reader is going to win 4 adult tickets! Enter by letting me know if you have been to the show before by leaving a comment. Super easy!
Winner will be chosen at random tonight 9/5/13 at midnight.
I haven't been, but my roommate is a huge fan of Tanked, so I'd love to take her. Thanks! =)
