BioVivara

BioVivara BioVivara helps exotic plant and animal enthusiasts create beautiful, low-maintenance, naturalistic enclosures. Why? Because nature knows best.

We offer custom acrylic enclosures, pre-made acrylic enclosures, design services, and more. Why We Do What We Do

Founded in 2008, BioVivara is the result of an idea: animal and plant enclosures should emulate nature as much as possible. Animals and plants thrive in their natural, complex ecosystems. To get the most enjoyment from our plants and animals, and ensure that they are thriving (not just

surviving), we have reconstructed the vivarium to better emulate nature in the home and office. Our systems create the necessary framework for small pet and specialty plant owners to recreate the special environmental factors necessary to ensure thriving animals and plants. Our History

We started out as hobbyists, designing and building terrariums, paludariums, and planted aquariums for our personal enjoyment. In 2008, we started building and selling custom enclosures, backgrounds, and vivarium accessories in our basement. We also grew select hard-to-find plants and sold them locally and online. We realized that the existing options on the market either did not allow us to emulate natural biotypes or required extensive modification. So, we started experimenting with glass and acrylic to develop a framework that would be ideal for our favorite hobbies, particularly dart frogs and orchids. In 2011, we started working exclusively with acrylic due to its lighter weight, easier shipping, technological advances (such as greater scratch resistance and excellent weathering) and ease of customization for our needs. We continued to prototype our comprehensive enclosure systems and began the process of patenting some of our creations (like the patent-pending Water-Flow System and Air-Flow System). In 2012 we will launch our first widely available comprehensive enclosures, including the Rainforest-Emulating Vivarium and the Mini-Orchid Desktop Vivarium, via Kickstarter.com

In 2016, we expanded extensively with larger, custom enclosures, vivarium stands, and light hoods.

Our Story

We help exotic plant and animal enthusiasts create beautiful, low-maintenance, naturalistic enclosures. We offer custom acrylic enclosures, pre-made acrylic enclosures, design services, and more.

OUR PHILOSOPHY

Quality of life matters - for us as humans and for the plants and animals we keep. We believe enclosures should provide as-close-to-ideal living conditions for captive plants and animals as possible. But, plant and animal keepers should be able to do this in a way that adds significant value to their lives, too, rather than sacrificing aesthetics for function.
