This kind of came out of the wild blue yonder, but a Busch Gardens Tampa spokesperson has apparently confirmed to PixelsAtTheParks that April 10th was the last day to ride the Tanganyika Tidal Wave attraction. The attraction is now closed for good it seems, though it makes little sense to me to close one of your big water rides just before the start of summer, rather than close it down at the end of Summer.
I suspect something very WRONG may have taken place with the ride to suddenly close it down, as the park's official rehab schedule page still had Tidal Wave listed last week to be closed for a scheduled maintenance break from May 9 to May 13th... but I guess they have opted to close it instead and have now removed that listing from the page.

Any thoughts of what could go in its place or maybe a refurbishment? Comment your thoughts below!
If anything i hope its just a refurbishment and the ride will be back in operation come maybe August!
