-Mount many incandescent light bulbs underneath the bottom (My guess, for this scale, you'd want about 100 watts per gallon. You'll have to adjust as necessary; I recommend initially running this on a Triac to begin with so that you can adjust the power until you find the right level.)
-Fill tank 1/4 with canning or candle wax (you can add candle dye
-Fill rest 3/4 with distilled water (you can add canning (sometimes called pickling) salt to adjust the specific gravity of the water solution)
-Add a bit of food dye of your choice to color the water
-Cover with a non-airtight lid (you don't want a build up of pressure causing the tank to break and spray hot liquid on you)
Ta-da, instant jumbo lava lamp! Because it's long and narrow, it's much more interesting than just a vertical tube. You can employ hotspots, or you can try to homogenize the heat as much as possible and see how the lava flows. You can probably even get some circulation if you heat on the left and let it cool on the right.
The second source link has lots of information of the specifics of mixing the liquids.

Then add some lights below and or behind for mood lighting.
Fantastic.... (Can't find a pic though...:-()

Electrochemistry on large objects also comes to mind, if the silicone seals can handle the chemicals.
