Mayur Dev
Aquascaper, Listener, Creator
A Journey Rooted in Silence, Guided by Nature
“Thunder is Mother Nature’s whisper. A rainbow is her colour. My life journey is her path.”
Mayur Dev
In the vibrant city of Bangalore, Karnataka, a boy found himself more fluent in the sounds of animals than in human words. Birds, dogs, and even the whisper of wind were Mayur Dev’s first teachers. Raised in a family where the rhythm of bakery ovens set the pace of daily life, Mayur followed his lineage into entrepreneurship. But within him, a different rhythm played—that of forests, flowing rivers, and unspoken truths held by nature.
Though his hands crafted bread, his soul longed to shape landscapes. The turning point came deep in the forests of Kerala. There, face-to-face with a wild elephant, Mayur felt no fear—only belonging. That silent gaze, profound and ancient, spoke to him in a language he didn’t know he knew. It wasn’t just an encounter; it was an awakening. That moment gave birth to the question that still guides every creation of his:
"What Happens In Nature?"
Philosophy in Practice: Listening Over Looking
From Baker to Biotope Builder
Before embracing aquascaping fully, Mayur ran successful restaurants and built business ventures. But burnout became his hidden teacher. The pursuit of profits alone left him yearning for something deeper—something real. That longing led him into the wild, and the wild led him back to himself.
He began designing tanks not for showrooms, but for people healing from trauma. Children with anxiety, cancer survivors, and overwhelmed professionals found solace in his creations. With every planted tank, he wasn’t just adding greenery; he was restoring balance.
Inspiration to Creation : Ayurveda in a Tank
Every element in Mayur’s work is backed by personal experience, cultural knowledge, and natural observation. He doesn’t just build from imagination. He builds from immersion:
- 150+ custom aquascapes across India
- Tanks in therapy clinics, schools, homes, and offices
- Field trips to rivers, forests, and ancient groves
- Experiments on how sound, temperature, and color affect fish behaviour
- Collaborations with Ayurvedic doctors to develop fish-safe natural remedies
Aquarium Products India: Products That Speak for the Fish
Aquarium Products India is not just a business—it’s an extension of Mayur Dev’s philosophy. Co-founded with Dr. Subin Mathews, Head of Research and Development, Aquarium Products India benefits from the vision of an exceptional scholar with four PhDs and a lifelong dedication to aquatic life. A research-driven hobbyist, Dr. Subin’s analytical rigor and passion have helped transform how the aquarium industry approaches innovation and care.
Aquarium Products India was born from a simple yet powerful idea: to create what fish genuinely need—not what the market demands, but what nature provides. It is rooted in the same question that drives all of Mayur’s work: “What happens in nature?” By listening to the silent intelligence of rivers, forests, and aquatic life, Aquarium Products India develops products that align with the rhythms of the natural world.
But this philosophy is inseparable from responsibility. Keeping a fish is not about decoration—it’s about devotion. It is a quiet promise to respect, nurture, and protect a life. At Aquarium Products India, every formula, every ingredient, and every design is guided by that promise. Because when we listen to nature, nature tells us how to care.
The mission of Aquarium Products India is clear: to cultivate not just better products, but more responsible fishkeepers. To remind people that owning a fish is not simply about pet care—it’s about entering into a relationship with a living being, one that demands empathy, respect, and informed stewardship.
This Vision has Given Rise to Innovations That are Now at The Heart of The Company
Life Aayu : India's First Ayurvedic Fish Food
More than nutrition—this is emotional nourishment. Crafted with herbs and natural compounds known to reduce stress in fish, Life AAYU helps create harmony inside the tank by respecting the biology of the fish and the balance of the ecosystem.
Sunken Garden : A Natural Water Conditioner
Inspired by rainfall and forest runoff, Sunken Garden uses natural herbs to soften and purify water—calming not just aquatic life but also the environment around it. It turns water into wellness.
Indica Aquarium Soil
More than a substrate, this is a foundation of intent. Designed to replicate the rich forest floors of India, Indica Soil anchors plants with minerals that support long-term growth and natural buffering capacity.
These innovations are not side projects—they are the very soul of Aquarium Products India. Each product is born from deep insight, shaped by scientific understanding, and refined with heartfelt care. Together, they represent a new kind of fishkeeping—one that listens, learns, and leads with nature.
Building a Community, Not Just a Brand
Mayur doesn’t sell aquariums. He shares stories. His videos aren’t tutorials—they’re invitations. He leads workshops, speaks to children, and engages communities. His social media is less about aesthetics and more about awareness.
Through Aquarium Products India, he’s creating a movement. One that blends science, soul, and sustainability. Each product, from filter pads to bio media, ties back to a central idea: water heals.
A Mission Larger Than Glass
Mayur’s ultimate goal isn’t to be the best aquascaper. It’s to be a bridge. Between modern life and ancient wisdom. Between silence and sound. Between people and the planet.
He doesn’t just design layouts. He decodes language—the language of leaves, water, soil, and scale.
Life Aayu & Sunken Garden are not isolated brands. They are aligned forces—each reinforcing the same story. They all converge into platforms like aquariumproductsindia.in and aquaticexperts.in to make knowledge and products accessible to everyone.
But beyond commerce, the mission is service. Giving back to society is not an afterthought—it’s a foundational thread. Whether it’s creating awareness about natural water systems, empowering children to understand ecosystems, conducting outreach programs, or enabling fishkeepers to think holistically, the goal is clear: build not just aquascapes, but values.
