Monster Aquarium in Madurai – Lake Malawi Cichlids Habitat

Madurai’s Premier Aquascaping Gallery

At Filial Aquatics, we take pride in designing aquariums that go beyond imagination. Recently, we completed a monster aquarium project that combined sheer scale, cutting-edge filtration, and a natural Lake Malawi cichlid biotope. This custom-built installation is not just an aquarium—it’s a living piece of art designed to house a thriving ecosystem of more than 100 exotic cichlids.

Tank Specifications

The aquarium measures an impressive 15 x 2 x 2.5 ft, built in an L-shaped design to perfectly fit the client’s space. Constructed with 19mm toughened glass, the front panels are extra clear to ensure maximum viewing clarity. For durability and precision, we used Wacker 121 aquarium-grade silicon with our signature Zero silicon pasting technique, making the build both seamless and long-lasting.

Biotope Design

To replicate the rocky shores of Lake Malawi, we incorporated over 400 kgs of hole rocks. These carefully arranged stones create more than 100 caves and hiding spots, providing a natural and secure habitat for the cichlids. The substrate features 250 kgs of Neil sand, chosen for its natural look and smooth texture, making it safe for the fish while enhancing the authentic feel of the biotope.

With these design elements, the aquarium not only captures the essence of Lake Malawi but also provides the right environment for cichlids to display their vibrant colors and natural behaviors.

Livestock

The aquarium is now home to 100 Lake Malawi cichlids, each thriving in the carefully designed environment. With abundant caves, rock structures, and open swimming spaces, these fish can establish territories, exhibit natural behavior, and coexist in harmony. The vibrant blues, yellows, and reds of the cichlids transform the aquarium into a living masterpiece.
