The entrepreneurs faced the sharks in Season 8, Episode 17 in the episode that aired February 17, 2017. Bitsbox, the service that teaches kids computer coding, pitched in the Kids & Education category, one of 134 kids & education businesses to brave the Tank across all 17 seasons.
They came in asking $250,000 in exchange for 3% equity, putting a $8.3M valuation on the business.
Bitsbox couldn't land an offer the founders would take, and the pitch ended without a deal. History says that's survivable: several of the show's biggest success stories left the Tank empty-handed.
