Celebrities who Reefkeep

[Fishy Lightningsticks]

I heard Sinbad the comedian likes to reefkeep in his downtime. Does anyone know of any others?

I saw an interview with Jimmy Johnson when he was toward the end of his coaching career with the Dolphins and he had a big reef tank in his office or home (where ever the interview was taking place).
It wasn't really talked about and they didn't show it to much but he did mention he enjoyed his reef tank.

I think A.J. Bramlett of the Backstreet Boys had a giant fishtank when they showed his house on MTV's Cribs.

Ice-T has a large shark tank with some rather big sharks. What do you expect from a guy who has a pitbull named 86.
Saw it on VH-1.

I also saw the tanks of former coach Jimmy Johnson on a special on TV.

Lots of people on Cribs have FO systems. more than likely Maintained by a company however.

I've sold to:

Gary Portnoy - cowriter of "Where everybody knows your name" (Cheers)

Eddie Murphy

Paul Dushey - formerly of the NHL Rangers

I also have a wholesale customer who services a large shark tank for Scotty Pippen.

I also heard music legend Eddie Money of 1980s rock fame has a huge tank.

I've been informed by a customer of mine that Acrylic Tank Manufacturing is building a large tank for President Bush no idea what will be in it.

Hopefully Osama bin Laden's bones will be used as one of those aquarium skeleton toys.

Or Monica........

Wait, that should be Hillary Clinton.......(nevermind)

I second that post about Bush recieving an aquarium from ATM. I heard the other day that it utilizes acrylic that is 4"-6" thick. Apparently it is already made.

Cheers!

If you saw the original special on Jesse James, he had a huge shark tank at his West Coast Choppers location in LA. Good Discovery Channel TV. It isn't deep blue, but it's good to be well rounded.

Ozzy has tangs.

I liked the tank in Romeo+Juliet .... I proudly recognized all fish.

 

[Gary Majchrzak]

Dunno if it's true, but in addition to his ex-coach,I heard Troy Aikman has a big 'ol tank.

I bet MC Hammer had tons of them. I mean, the mansion he used to own was a virtual Atlantis with all of the water it had. As Hammer said, Water=Power, so I bet he had a lot of reefkeeping setups.

I have seen pics of Emmitt Smith's {Dallas Cowboys} tank from a guy that used to work here in a LFS. He had his own maintenance company in Dallas before moving here. There is a retired pro. tennis player that is really into reefing and marine fish now. I think his name is Aaron Krickstein{sp} or something like that. TV did a thing on him during one of the big tennis tourniments since he had to retire due to injury. He was reeling off all the scientific names of fish and corals. Cool thread.

No kidding, I loved that show. I try to live my life as an equal balance between Al and Home Simpson. My wife's a Saint!

Mariah carey, some guy from the jaguars, and master P had really nice reef setups (in wall, custom, marble trim), but the stuff inside was pretty boring (sarcophytons, damsels, yellow tangs). Just watch MTV cribs...there's a fish tank in every episode.
