A hotel lounge bar before it opens: a long, brightly lit planted freshwater aquarium with driftwood and a shoal of small fish set into the stone wall behind an empty oak bar, and a steel service cart beside it with a coiled siphon hose, two white buckets, blue towels and a kit case.

The week

The week, around the venue’s hours.

Each system keeps its own series: LR-01 every Tuesday before guests come down, the living wall and the bar display every other week, the koi pond once a month. When the venue changes its day, the visit moves and the series keeps its rhythm.

How often

How often a commercial display is serviced

Most commercial aquariums are serviced on a set rhythm, often weekly or fortnightly, and the right one depends on the system, its stocking and what the agreement with the client covers. In Frescalo the rhythm is yours to set per system, and every visit in the series lands on the calendar.

  • 01

    A series per system

    A saltwater display weekly, a planted freshwater display or a living wall every other week, a pond monthly: each system keeps its own recurring visits.

  • 02

    Cycles of their own

    Filter media, lamps, UV lamps and the irrigation filter come due on the cycle you set, and show on the visit when they do.

  • 03

    Around the venue

    Before guests come down, before the bar opens, between lunch and dinner service: each visit sits where the venue needs it.

  • 04

    Moves without losing the thread

    Move one visit for a private event or a closed lobby, and the series carries on as it was.

  • 05

    Who’s where

    Service aquarists and living-wall specialists see their own day; the owner sees the whole week across every client.

  • 06

    The plan behind it

    The visits come from the Stewardship Plan you agreed with the client, and the month’s invoice follows from the same plan.

A new display

The first weeks, until it’s ready.

A new display gets more visits while it cycles. Your team tests ammonia and nitrite at each one; when both read zero, fish are added gradually and the display joins the regular rhythm.

The pond’s season

An outdoor pond follows its season.

KP-01 sits in the courtyard, so its care follows the year: the spring start-up, the net before the leaves fall, the winter shutdown. The dates follow your hemisphere; the monthly visit carries on around them.

Keep exploring

Where the visit goes next

Also: the visit between lunch and dinner service, and the glossary of aquarium and living wall terms.

Frescalo keeps the record of what your team checked, measured, changed and reported at each visit, against the ranges you set. Living systems carry inherent biological risk; Frescalo documents care - it does not guarantee outcomes.
