I saw Fish Tank Kings, and I liked the episode more than any of the Tanked episodes so far...I've personally been to the stadium and seen the tanks in person, so I enjoyed the episode for that reason as well. I liked the segments with the fish geek when compared to the "equivalent" scenes in Tanked when the guys go pick out fish at the wholesaler...felt like they tried to have him mention at least some things about fish other than a complement on its appearance/color. I'm looking forward to future episodes. In regards to both shows, regardless of negatives others have said here, I like that it is attention for the hobby that will possibly get more people interested.
As for posts saying they want to see central american cichlids and things of that nature, I personally hope they don't do it...a tank filled with a bunch of big brown cichlids won't have a "wow" factor for the everyday viewer that wants to see colorful fish and impressive looking things like sharks.
