Luxury Aquarium in Calosso, Asti.

Hosted by African cichlids, it comes to life thanks to the expert hands of our artisans who have meticulously crafted an indoor sculpture that mimics the wonders of Mother Nature.

As you watch the cichlids interact with the intricate environment, you will witness their natural behaviors. From courtship dances, to territorial displays, the aquarium offers a glimpse into the fascinating world of these extraordinary African fish.

Luxury Aquarium in Bologna

This aquarium has been designed down to the smallest details, with a minimalist structure to enhance the beauty of Discus, fish with breathtaking shades of color.

Every element, from the clean lines to the careful use of materials, was selected to make the aquarium a true work of art within any space.

The Process

Ideation

The birth of each of our artifacts occurs through the client's vision and dream. Through an on-call session of idea sharing, we design the dream aquarium with a 3D design, making vision concrete instead of just imagination.

Implementation

From the executive design, we move on to mandated FEM analysis for structural calculations and setting up the aquarium in the desired location. Having defined the thicknesses, material selection and choice, we move on to the fabrication of the artifact.

Aquarium installation

This is where our creativity comes into play to create the perfect ecosystem. The installation and startup of the aquarium, along with the set-up, is the final process to ensure that the conceived design is consistent with the realization carried out on site by the customer.

Passion for aquatics, process engineering and Italian design.
The perfect combination to ensure high quality.

I was really impressed, the impressive 3D backgrounds are practically real, this is art, there is no other explanation, the art of Made in Italy."

"Thanks to the collaboration with Cavenza, it was possible to create a custom-made 4-metre tank to house sea urchins, very important animals because through their embryos it is possible to determine the minimum quantities of pollutants in the sea".

A little pause, while everything is flowing....

The rapidity of life, of everyday life, has so many possibilities, to always be lived to the fullest.

In a global voracity, there are and will remain timeless and unquantified values.

Authentic wealth is the quality of relationships, of relationships: friendship, family. Happy moments, shared laughter, satisfaction remain etched in memory forever. And they will never be priced.

Modern life subjects us to an endless volume of commitments; duties and responsibilities that often lead us to be in constant motion, not always pleasant. The hustle of daily life makes us forget the importance of pausing for a moment; observing, reflecting and relaxing.

Now...

Imagine coming home after a long, stressful day at work and being greeted by the glow of light reflecting faintly in the water in front of you.

An ancestral call, water as the primary element leading to archetypal sensations: the sea, natural sounds, relaxation of pisco-physical functions, deep harmonious breaths make us forget that we are...

What is all this?

FAQ

Company

Our craft workshop is located near Florence, in Barberino di Mugello.

We allow visits to our craft workshop by appointment only.

Services and Products

CaVenza is a company that specializes in making complete aquarium systems. Specifically, we produce aquariums, furniture, custom setups (Sculptures, in particular). Each of these products is unique and exclusive and is made to order. The customer therefore has complete freedom and customization. In addition, the flywheel of our offerings also includes other solutions including shrines, terrariums, and turtle tanks, custom-made of course.

Of course, our mission is to make the best custom aquariums on the market. Turnkey aquarium systems. We then take care of providing all the necessary accessories: filtration systems, sumps, lighting systems, handcrafted 3D backdrops, resin rocks and all the necessary accessories to enable a complete aquatics system to function properly. In addition, through our in-house biologists, we can offer consultations both on-site from the customer and remotely for long-term system start-up and maintenance.

Yes. We cultivate constant contacts with a number of suppliers who do direct fish imports and from whom we are able to retrieve a wide variety of different species. Usually those who decide to buy fish from specialty retailers or e-commerce sites have the option of choosing from within a narrow flywheel of specimens. What we do, on the other hand, is direct fishing through our biologists, in our suppliers' greenhouses. This allows us to offer our customers the opportunity to choose the specimens they prefer and that are best suited (even in size or color) to the environment in which they are to be placed.

CaVenza Start allows you to receive a consultation with guidance on how many and which species you can breed within your custom aquarium and especially on their compatibility. This scientific step is crucial because it allows you to recreate a balanced and functioning ecosystem, reducing problems as much as possible. Along with this is also included a specific study of what setups and accessories are best suited for the ecosystem.

Safety and security

Generally, the tightness of an attic varies from 300 to 500 kg/m2, but of course there are a number of factors that must be taken into account in these assessments. First of all, the tightness of the house: an old house will boast a lower tightness than a newly built one. The location within the home itself is also crucial: placing the aquarium in the center of a room is quite different than placing it close to the wall. The shape of the aquarium, then, constitutes the last variable to keep in mind: an aquarium that develops its dimensions horizontally will tend to stress the attic less by virtue of a more even distribution of weight. In any case, the advice we give is to seek dedicated advice from a trusted architect if your intention is to set up a very large aquarium. We specify that any kind of assessment regarding the tightness of the attic is the responsibility of the client and the sole responsibility of the client.

This information is offered on the quote for each aquarium we produce. Each of our creations has a different weight, which varies depending on the materials used and the customizations that are made.

The weight of the cabinet holding the aquarium tends to be around 10% of the total weight of the aquarium.

Quote request and order management

Through our contact form you can request a free custom quote. During this process you will be able to specify the dimensions, tell us if you plan to make a freshwater or a marine aquarium and if you need to add a structure with furniture and accessories. Once the request is filled out, within 48h, you will receive a call from one of our experts to finalize the quote and all the details of the custom request.

Processing of your product will be started after the order definition call with one of our dedicated consultants. We will need this phone discussion so that we can agree with you on all the details related to the production of your aquarium. If you decide to make payment for your custom product in a lump sum, you will be able to agree immediately on a time and day to make the call. If, on the other hand, you have chosen payment in several solutions, the call will be agreed upon and made once you have paid at least 50% of the total order amount.

Before the order definition call, you can modify any aspect of the order. Any changes, not budgeted for before, may require an update of the total estimate made in the previous step.

You will be updated via email, in real time, with every production update. In fact, we have developed an internal system that automatically updates the customer with each production progress of the manufactured item. The notification system is managed directly by our production guys.

Production time for one of our aquariums varies on average from 60 to 120 working days starting from the start of production work, unless expressly specified.

Payments method

Bank transfer.

Most of our customers choose to pay by full payment in advance, which entitles them to a 4% discount on the total order amount. Alternatively, we ask for at least 50% of the quoted amount to start with putting the item into production. The remaining 50% will be welded by the customer upon departure of the parcel, pre-shipment, from our craft workshop.
