  • 2 Stars — Pretty bad. Some funny moments, dragged, too many vibe repair days. Barely worth checking.

    Votes: 177 22.6%
  • 4 Stars — Really good. Lots of hilarious moments, strong fish personalities, solid content and vibes

    Votes: 408 52.2%
  • 5 Stars — Peak Fishtank / Masterpiece. Non-stop insanity, legendary fish and production, pure chaos

I believe someone crunched the numbers and total revenue for season 1 was around 1.2.-1.7 million based off of stuff that could be tracked like plushies and TTS. Given how expensive TTS was in the first few weeks and how much individual cigarettes were marked up from a single pack I can see them making a fair bit of money. There isn't a single point in the show where Trish, Shinji, Tay or Jimmy didn't have one. Shinji and Tay seemed like they were pushing a pack or two a day towards the tail end of the season and I believe each cig was $30. Given that TJ didn't smoke he was probably the least profitable contestant the whole way through the show, even if he did get a fair bit of TTS berating him to do shit.
Begs the question of if they'll do cigs again... that seemed like a very 70s themed thing. When they introduced the printouts of people's names to go with the cigs that was extremely smart, because before that the fish would just turn to whoever was giving them the cig and say "thanks" and I imagine that was infuriating for buyers. In comparison, signed cigarettes were the "money goblin, remember that" "dr leon cream" "psych 5150" option for parasocial people who wanted to burn themselves in someone's brain.

If I'd credit anything, actually, I'd credit TTS being live since day 2 compared to being cut for almost the whole week during season 1. If they forget about that being an ENTIRE WEEK of revenue they didn't make last time they're insane.

Also the arrival of the complex fishtoys like forced date and pep talk made all the fish moneymakers. If I was gonna fuck with that though, they can't be doing stuff like "clear the room" and not enforce it like they did this season. And beyond the doghouse just being a gay concept, that time someone put Shinji in a shut up bag and then put him in a forced beef was also pretty gay.
 
The estimate for Fishtank season 1 was $1,249,242.02. You can find all the info here https://old.reddit.com/r/fishtanklive/comments/13w7ikh/fishtank_made_124924202/

Also holy shit 17 different people paid for the scream at Letty fishtoy.
Actually that estimate was really close. They put the financials up in August: https://wefunder.com/fishtank/details

Do they seriously made $5 millions from both season 1 and 2? Also, why do they restrict the stream to investor only?
No, absolutely impossible they made more than 300k in season 2, they're blatantly lying to their investors. But those losers deserve it for funding season 2, and trusting Sam and Goran; I bet they're gonna swallow every lie in that stream like good whores and ask for more. Their willingness to throw money at their e daddy just to feel closer to him is pathetic and what condemned season 2 from its inception. They deserve to get scammed like those retards that gave money to Logan Paul for that nft zoo game. The only hope the wiggers have is that the investors don't leave (in the bag already), they get more (difficult), and season 3 is at least as successful as 1. Anything less than that and Sam will make a tweet saying "sorry shit happens, but stay tuned for our next project", like Logan does every now and then.

The season passes alone netted them over 300k during season 1. To say it's "impossible" for season 2 to have made that is utterly retarded like most of your posts.

Fraud is a big deal and also fucking retarded. You will see if you are correct (and you won't be) if the police come and raid their offices over it.

Based only on clan member censuses they made at least 300k from season passes alone

If I had to guess what they earned I'd say somewhere between 350k-600k. I also don't believe that Jackie girl bought the airbnb fishtoy considering how many OnlyFans girls Sam has been collaborating with for the stream and Sam & Nick After Dark.
 
Here come the cope replies and reactions because you insulted someone's e daddy or spoke shit about an ongoing scam. You always see these every time an obvious scam is happening; they need to believe their e daddy isn't a scammer, and their investment is smart.

This hothead even took it personal lmao. Use your head and not your feelings, compare s1 to 2; simple logic and numbers will show you the truth. "We doubled our 2023 revenue" pfff ahaha.
 
The biggest expense is obviously the house, this is an asset that will take them a half year to restore and sell and wont be a profitable asset until long after the August financial year ends. The whole building is fucked from end to end, plumbing, electrical, massive interior damage, damaged roof causes water leaks and whatever causes water to flow into the basement. Just handling the roof and installing new windows would be a cool 50-70k in costs, and that is before the labor involved in demolishing the interior down to the studs and rafters and disposing of it all.

I invested $0 (zero dollars) into Fishnet, Inc. I just think you're retarded. Hiding fraud like that just isn't possible.

I think this is one of the most interesting aspects of the show. The idea of buying a shitty house, ruining it during the production of your reality show and then fixing it back up to sell.
Because of the show revenue they don't even need the house-flipping to be profitable, all they need to to mitigate cost in the end. Sure if they can profit that's great, but because its not critical it gives them a lot of flexibility over anyone whos doing house-flipping professionally.

Of course it isn't; but stupid people attempt it anyway. Logan Paul is getting sued by a bunch of the retards who let him scam them. You've seen these lazy wiggers be irresponsible, lying scumbags, and idiots, for 6 weeks; why is it suddenly impossible that they are still that? I'm thinking there are paypiggies and fans pretending to not be itt, at the ready to do damage control for their e daddy and wallets (not referring to you btw).

Because there is a pretty big difference between Jet being incompetent and stupid and actively commiting hundreds of thousands of dollars in fraud. I can't believe I even have to explain this to you.

Replace Goran with Logan Paul, and h of thousands with millions, and it's a common comment posted back then to defend him while the nft game was being promoted.

Well the house flipping can be a spinoff show on its own and earn profits off Youtube. As for this house, I doubt they'll get much of a profit on it at all under current market conditions. I think the best course of action would be for them to lease a warehouse and build a set inside it. Season 1 had a problem of the rooms having way too much echo in them and the floors becoming a slip and slide, but Season 2 had an equally if not more disastrous problem of the various fluids and substances becoming embedded into the rugs, creating a literal fucking health hazard that more or less crippled the cast by the final week. On his video talking about his experience with Fishtank he posted a picture of everyone at a bar and said that every single person in it ended up with a real bad case of the flu by the time they got home.

Even when in small rooms the echo and microphone peaking was insane during Season 1 because of the laminate floors:
