Your Kid's Fish Keep Dying.
It's Not Your Fault.

You bought the tank, the filter, the gravel. You followed the instructions. But somehow the water gets cloudy, the algae takes over, and the fish float to the top. Again.

Here's what nobody told you: an aquarium is a complete ecosystem. When one thing is off—pH, ammonia, bacteria balance, light cycles—the whole system crashes.

You don't need to become a marine biologist. You need an ecosystem architect.

Sound Familiar?

  • Green water and algae blooms you can't control
  • Fish dying for no apparent reason
  • Filter clogs constantly, needs cleaning weekly
  • Plants turning brown and melting away
  • Dumping and refilling water every week
  • No idea what's actually wrong

Meet Maxwell

Your Ecosystem Architect

Fish aren't just my job—they're my life. I grew up on the water, and now I'm raising my kids with the same love for aquatic life. When I'm not helping families fix their tanks, I'm out fishing with my son or tinkering with my own aquariums at home.

Over 10 years of hands-on experience has taught me one thing: fish don't fail—ecosystems do. When the balance is right, fish don't just survive. They thrive. They're active, colorful, and you barely have to touch the tank.

I built Mad Lab Aquariums because I believe every family deserves a tank that brings joy, not stress. Whether it's your kid's first goldfish or an exotic moray eel, I'll help you get it right.
