MOSKVARIUM

We light up the rarest species of the abyss

In the heart of the Russian capital opened the center of oceanography and marine biology “Moskvarium”, recognized as the biggest in Europe: 80 aquariums, 8000 species of sea creatures from all over the world including 500 species of fishes, killer whales, three meter sharks, dolphins and Russian sturgeon.

The total area of the complex is 53 thousand square meters (including pools for marine mammals). The capacity of water reservoirs is 25 million liters. There are 80 aquariums (a reservoir of three million liters capacity and area of 12 square meters) in the Moskvarium and 1.2 thousand people can attend it at a time.

For this very special project, Fael LUCE provided 300 pieces of MACH Series, with special metal-halide lamps. The floodlights, in die-cast alluminium, with the primary alloy with a low copper content, have proved to be the ideal solution for such environments, particularly exposed to a high moisture level.

The color temperature is a key feature both because it impacts directly on the health of corals and it changes the color tone of the tank, influencing the appearance that has to be as natural as possible.
