What is a Paludaruim?
A paludarium is a type of vivarium that consists of a land element, a water element, and a collection of natural plants. In most cases, they can house an amphibious animal and also support small fish in the aquatic portion of the enclosure.
The Paludarium
(48″L x 24″W x 30″H)
This 70-gallon paludarium is made from 3/8″ glass with our patented frame on the top and bottom of the tank. The frame is made from high-strength black anodized aluminum.
We offer an industry-leading lifetime warranty on the paludarium at no extra cost if it is placed on our stand and properly cared for. You have the option of adding a stand to the paludarium when you configure it.
We can offer this lifetime warranty because of the superior engineering and rigorous quality control that goes into every aquarium and paludarium we manufacture. We remove integrity compromising micro-fractures by beveling and polishing every edge of every piece of glass. We use a black high-strength aquarium-grade silicone that is five times stronger than common clear aquarium silicone.
The Basic Package
The Basic package includes everything you need to connect a sump filtration system to your paludarium. It includes one of our H2Overflow® overflow screens and two Siphon Stopper® return nozzles. Holes for the overflows and returns are drilled in the back of the tank. This allows you to use a low maintenance gravity fed sump system that is much less likely to fail or flood.
The Deluxe Package
The Deluxe package adds a 1200GPH 29 Seamless Sump filter system. The sump system will hold around 20 gallons of water bringing your system volume to 88 gallons. The Seamless sump tubs are made out of durable high density polyethylene. The tubs have no seams that can leak or fail.
This Seamless sump system includes two Sicce 1.5 return pumps for redundant returns in case one fails. The system also includes a UV sterilizer, bio media, Purigen, a filter sock, and all the return and overflow hoses.
The Majestic® Stand
You have the option of including a custom-built Majestic® hardwood stand with your tank. The stand can either be a high-strength powder-coated steel tube stand or a hardwood cabinet with a matching canopy. The hardwood stand and canopy are available in a number of styles, woods, and colors.
The hardwood stand is made using furniture quality wood. It is only made from high-quality materials. No cardboard, fiberboard, particleboard, or softwood are used in our stands. Our stands are designed to last a lifetime.
The steel stand is made from high-strength square tube steel. The steel frame is welded into a single solid piece. There are no open ends for water to collect in. Lastly, the whole frame is finished with a durable oven-cured powder coating. The steel stand has a 3/4″ plywood top that is painted to match the black powder coating.
