Introduction: The World of Aquariums, Reimagined

Aquariums are no longer just glass boxes filled with water and fish. They are living works of art, carefully designed to recreate nature within our homes, offices, and public spaces. In South India, Filial Aquatics has become a name synonymous with excellence in aquascaping, aquarium design, and fish care. With locations in Madurai and Tirunelveli, and a growing presence across Tamil Nadu, we specialize in creating aquariums that balance beauty, functionality, and sustainability.

Our Services

1. Aquascaping – Where Art Meets Science

We design aquascapes that replicate natural environments, from the flowing rivers of the Amazon to the rocky habitats of Lake Malawi. Our projects range from minimalist cube aquariums to large planted show tanks with advanced CO₂ systems and fertilizers.

We specialize in techniques like:

  • Iwagumi layouts (stone-based scapes following the golden ratio).

  • Dutch aquascapes with lush plant groupings.

  • Biotope aquariums replicate natural habitats for species like Altum Angelfish or Discus.



2. Monster Aquariums

Our expertise includes building monster tanks for large fish species such as Oscars, Arowanas, and exotic Lake Malawi cichlids. These aquariums often use:

  • 12–19mm glass with zero-silicone pasting.

  • Sump filtration or high-capacity canisters like Fluval FX6.

  • Custom rock formations with 100+ hiding caves.

For example, we recently completed a 15x2x2.5 ft L-shaped monster aquarium with 400 kg of hole rocks, 250 kg of Neil sand, and a 5ft sump filter.
