We're installing two tanks in Vegas today, a boat tank and a table aquarium. The team just fixed the leak in the table. Problem is, they sealed it up before we put fish in. And the clients are probably expecting to see fish in a fish tank. And the show opens in less than an hour. You know what? If it's not one thing, it's another. We got to get this thing drained now, open this top up, get the fish in, and then reseal it. Let's get a pump on this. Whatever we got to do, let's do it. We got to drain a couple inches of water out of this tank so the water doesn't come flowing out and drain on the floor.
It's drained enough. Let's get the fish in. Fish are all acclimated, ready to go? Yeah, I told you I'm ready. Dude, we are serving up fish number one, lyretail hogfish. Let's get him in the tank. I hope he doesn't hog up all the food. And the ocellated butterfly. Fish are going in like a piece of cake. I'm serving up an assortment of desserts right now. Naso tang and an orange shoulder tang. All right, guys, here we go. Right to the dinner table.
Here comes the last queen angel, the yellow tang, and the purple tang. That's the icing on the cake. You like that, huh? Fish are in. All right, let's wrap it up. We got to get these fish in right now. Hey, these fish look real happy right now being part of the table instead of on top of the table. And for the grand finale, we'll top off our V-shaped overflow with an elegant bouquet of flowers. That looks nice. Hey General, come here. Yeah, what do you want? You went to etiquette school, right?
Yeah. All right, well, get the placemats and set all this and get this ready. Time for me to shine. Thanks, Dr. Flow. First, we put the main plate down. Woah. That's all right, I'll get it. Next up, declutching school. The salad fork is on the outside on the left. Okay, which one's the smaller one? one. Why don't you call the customer and then show him the tank? Okay. Elaine, Tony. Oh, jeez. OH MY GOD. WOW. WOW, THAT is amazing.
Absolutely everything. I ever expected. You guys wanted a beautiful tank to show off your settings and everything. Came up with an idea the table and you know what? I think Heather should set the table like this every night at the house. People are able to feel your product, which is exactly what you want. Yep. So my dad told us that you guys, you know, wanted to see through the top and that was the most important thing. It wasn't that easy, but obviously you could see we made that happen. I love it. I love the fact you can see the fish and still have the place settings on there. And the great thing is we can put the seats underneath too and gather around You can have dinner on it tonight.
We can have dinner on it. Inside we got fish for all occasions. Penniatus butterfly which represents formal, you wear black and white tuxedo. You got the lyretail hog which has a lot of colors which represents festive. And then you have clown fish which are orange that look like candle flames. We gave you fish that really don't hide behind the coral. Fish that are going to be out swimming around. I'm so thrilled with it. This is going to bring so many people into our booth and it's definitely going to increase sales.
You guys nailed it. This is going to be absolutely perfect for our conventions and our trade shows. Nobody else is going to have anything like this. It's amazing. More than we could have ever expected. I just can't wait to show off our product on that beautiful tank. We're going to blow the doors off this place. So hope you guys enjoy this. This should be a smash hit for you guys at the show. Absolutely. All right, guys enjoy. Take care. Thank you. All right, guys. Those are some happy clients. Yeah, and we have to head back to a potentially angry redneck to finish the crab corner install.
How we doing, redneck? What's going on, man? I plumbed this whole thing. I've got it all set up. Is it ready to go? We're ready for water. Let's get the water. Where's the hose? Izzy. Since these Chesapeake Bay blue crabs live where fresh water meet the ocean, we're filling the tank up halfway with fresh water, then switching over to salt water. How's the salinity? 1.011 So, it's perfect. What about temperature? Temperature's perfect. Crabs will be happy. So, let's get the crabs in their new home.
Yeah, let's do it. Where's Brett? Hey. So, I left the crabs by the kitchen, and they the chef told me they're gone. What are you talking about? We had special crabs for here for display, and now you tell me in this restaurant they're gone. I talked to the chef. He said they're gone. Oh, Brett. We're in a crab restaurant. So, what are we going to do now? I have no idea, but I'm only kidding. Izzy's got them. That's what you get for being such a crab.
I can't believe you, dude. What can I say? I've always been able to entertain myself in a pinch. Yeah, I got to give you a pinch. Dude, let's get these crabs in. Let's do it. Look at this guy, huh? Feisty, huh? All right, you're going in your tank, buddy, okay? You know these guys are okay being out of water. For days they can stay out of Look at this guy, huh? Dude, it's like a battle royal.
These guys are vicious. You're getting flipped over. There you go. All right. Last one. The client wanted the bottom of the tank to look like the Chesapeake Bay. So, we took an actual photo of the bay, made a wrap, and lined the tank with it. That's why we're not covering it up with sand. All right, listen. All the crabs are in. Let's get the rest of the canopy on, the stand, let's wipe this down and get ready for the customer. Let's do it. Grab the bottom, turn it. Everybody press it up. front. Watch it, guys. Watch your fingers. Come to me. Be careful.
All right, let's get the wheelhouse up there. Dude, I'm ready to go sailing. It looks great. Man, it was a long day. Long day? It's been It's night. it was a long night. You know what? Today was amazing. We had two installs in one day. But, you know what? ATM's in the house and we got it done. Ready? Yeah, I'm ready. Bring it in. Oh, John, come on in. Wow, DUDE. OH MY THAT'S WHAT I'M talking about. Wow, it's a boat, man. You guys crushed it. nailed it, dude. Honestly. When they walked in, I think they thought they were in Maryland.
This is insane. When people walk into your place, this is the first thing that they're going to see. I think right here is perfect. People can see it from every part of the restaurant. That's about the size of a real crab boat. They kept it authentic. And that's the boat is a crab boat. And it's coming right out of the wall. And that's exactly what we wanted. Looks like you just pulled it right out of the water. I mean, it just takes your breath away. This whole side is actually removable and very easy to maintain the aquarium. So, this side comes out, you can get underneath it, you can adjust the chiller, do the filters, take care of it, and put it back.
How could they drive the boat? It has a wheel up top. got the flybridge up there. Just get in the seat and uh cruise out to the bay. I think the crabs love it. The crabs definitely love it. We want your customers to love it, too. People can walk up right on the glass and see the size of the crabs and everything. And now we can actually show the customers first hand the males and the females and which ones are which. The females had the red tip claws and the males had the blue tip claws. Like nail polish.
Just like it. The cool thing is these are actually your crabs. Because we know how important Maryland is to your business. So, we wanted to make sure that this aquarium was authentic to you guys. So, you know, we have brackish water, same parameters inside the tank as the Chesapeake Bay. I knew you guys would just absolutely kill it, but this is really amazing. I mean, you guys essentially brought the Chesapeake Bay to Nevada in Las Vegas, right here in our restaurant. I mean, you couldn't ask for anything more. In the middle of the desert, baby. Yeah, honestly. Nailed it. My favorite part is just how the crabs actually look in the tank. It looks like they're just crawling around the bottom of the bay. That's
exactly what we were looking for. I'm totally impressed and super happy. The client loved the tank. What was it? Smooth sailing? Yes, it was.
