    About Our Products

    All three are terrarium automation systems — But they were designed for completely different needs and types of keepers:

    FLOREA – Fully Integrated Smart Habitat

    • 7 high-precision sensors for extreme accuracy
    • Lumi AI integration Learns environmental patterns and continuously optimizes climate conditions automatically.

    • Includes the same Lumi AI automation system as Florea
    • Optimized for for collectible arthropods and rare tropical flora

    NOVA – Smart Automation Module

    • Installs into your existing terrarium
    • 2 essential sensors for stable control
    • Operates using rules and schedules you configure manually
    • Ideal if you already own a setup and simply want automation
    • $280 USD

    Florea is a smart ecosystem. Nexus is a living display piece. Nova is a smart controller that follows your rules

    Does Nexus include the same technology as Florea Original?

    Yes. Nexus includes the same automation system as Florea Original: precision humidity control, temperature regulation, ventilation, programmable LED lighting, app connectivity, and high-precision environmental sensors. Lumi AI is also fully integrated.

    The difference is not the technology — it’s the purpose behind the system.

    • Florea Original is optimized for sensitive reptiles and is custom-built around your species and living space
    • Nexus was designed as a premium display ecosystem for collectible arthropods and rare tropical flora, integrating the terrarium into your home as a living design object

    Both are complete ecosystems with precision automation. The choice depends on what you keep — and how you want it to exist within your space.

    About how much does a Florea cost?

    A Florea typically starts at around $1,260 USD, but the final price may vary depending on the size and specific configuration you need.

    Important: Florea is NOT a module or an add-on: It is a complete, smart terrarium that includes the structure, lighting, irrigation system, ventilation, and all components fully integrated into a single, cohesive ecosystem.

    Are Florea and Nova just “add-ons” or “accessories” for terrariums?

    NO. This is a very common misunderstanding. Florea and Nova are NOT accessories..

    Florea and Nexus are full smart ecosystems designed from the ground up. It includes the structure, lighting, irrigation, ventilation, and all systems working together as a single, coherent unit. It is a complete terrarium, not an add-on.

    Nova is a modular automation system que convierte terrarios existentes en inteligentes.

    An accessory helps. A brain controls everything. That’s what Florea and Nova are: the intelligence that makes the terrarium think for itself.

    Do I really need that much technology for my terrarium?

    Let’s put it this way: it’s not more technology — it’s less worry.

    Without intelligent automation:

    • You wake up at 3 AM to check the temperature
    • You adjust things manually four times a day
    • You worry every time you leave home
    • You spend more on electricity due to inefficiencies

    With Florea/Nexus/Nova:

    • You sleep peacefully through the night
    • You can leave for the weekend without stress
    • Your terrarium maintains perfect conditions 24/7
    • You save energy because everything is optimized

    It’s not a luxury — it’s time and peace of mind you get back to enjoy what you love.

    What if I start with something basic and upgrade later?

    We love that mindset — that’s exactly why Nova exists.

    The smart path:

    1. Start with Nova → Automate the essentials with technology that grows with you
    2. Si quieres más → Migras a Florea o Nexus sin perder tu inversión (te descontamos el 60% de Nova)
    3. If Nova is enough → Perfect. You already have a system built to last for years

    The common mistake: buying “temporary solutions” that become useless over time. With Nova, no matter your path — nothing goes to waste. 🔄

    Why does Florea have 7 sensors while Nova only has 2? Aren’t more sensors better?

    Great question! The difference isn’t “more vs. fewer” — it’s specialization vs. essentials. «especialización vs esencial».

    Florea y Nexus – 7 Sensores Especializados:

    • 3 temperature sensors (thermal gradients)
    • Air humidity (atmospheric control)
    • Soil moisture (intelligent irrigation)
    • UVB sensor (precise calibration)
    • Water level (auto-refill system)

    Nova — 2 Essential Sensors

    • Temperature + humidity (core monitoring)
    • Soil moisture (basic smart irrigation)

    Florea and Nexus is like having a scientific lab. Nova is like having a reliable assistant. Each one is designed for different needs. 🔬

    Technology and Operation

    Does Florea really have “AI,” or is it just marketing?

    Florea and Nexus have Adaptive Intelligence, which goes far beyond simple programming. It’s the difference between a robot that repeats movements and an assistant that learns from experience..

    Think of it this way:

    A basic system is like an alarm clock. Suena a la hora exacta que tú le pusiste.
    Lumi es como un personal assistant. Sabe que hoy hace más calor, ve que la humedad está bajando más rápido, y decide actuar antes de que el problema ocurra. That’s the difference.

    ¿Cómo lo hace en tu terrario?

    • Sees patterns you don’t notice: Learns that on Saturdays, when there’s more sun in the room, the temperature rises earlier. It then activates ventilation sooner that day.
    • Understands your inhabitants: If a plant is using more water this week, it adjusts irrigation automatically because it detects the soil drying faster.
    • Prevents rather than reacts: It doesn’t wait for humidity to drop to turn on the humidifier. It notices it’s dropping

    Lumi is available in both Florea Original and Florea Nexus.. Nova does not include Lumi AI, as it was designed to function as a smart controller that follows the rules and schedules you configure manually.

    Is the app complicated? What platforms does it work on?

    Not at all. The app is designed to be extremely intuitive. If you know how to use WhatsApp, you can use our app.

    App features:

    • Visual dashboard-style interface
    • Step-by-step guided setup
    • Push notifications when something needs attention
    • Condition history (Florea/Nexus: 30 days, Nova: 24 hours)
    • Manual control from anywhere

    Available on: iOS and Android

    No subscriptions: The app is 100% free, with no monthly fees.

    What happens if there’s a power outage or no internet?

    All systems work perfectly offline.

    No power: All products have persistent memory. When power returns, they continue exactly where they left off.

    No internet / WiFi: The systems keep running with their local programming. You’ll only lose remote monitoring and notifications.

    Florea and Nexus includes built-in surge protection. Nova has basic protection as well. As with any electronic equipment, we recommend using a voltage regulator for all.
