Exo Terra Pro Paludarium Large X-Tall - 90x45x90cm

The Exo Terra Pro Paludarium 90x45x90cm is a large-format glass terrarium designed specifically for building multi-zone paludarium setups — combining terrestrial, riparian, and aquatic environments within a single enclosure. Developed by European herpetologists, it suits arboreal reptiles, amphibians, aquatic species, and the keepers who want to build serious bioactive habitats.

Three Distinct Habitat Zones

A paludarium divides living space into three functional zones. The terrestrial zone is a dry land area of plants, rocks, and substrate — home to reptiles, amphibians, and invertebrates that stay above the waterline. The riparian zone forms the transitional interface between land and water, supporting semi-aquatic species. The aquatic zone — whether modelled as a pond, stream, or lake — can house turtles, aquatic amphibians, fish, and freshwater shrimps.

Waterproof Base and Drainage System

The extra-deep base is fully waterproof when the included tubing, elbow connector, and tap valve are fitted to the drain outlet. A built-in bottom drainage system makes water removal and weekly water changes straightforward, removing the need to disturb the entire setup. This makes the enclosure genuinely practical for long-term wet-zone management.

Ventilation and Condensation Control

The Pro Paludarium features an advanced three-tier adjustable airflow system that gives precise control over internal humidity and air movement. The patented forced vertical airflow is engineered to actively prevent condensation on the glass, maintaining clear sightlines and supporting the respiratory health of inhabitants. An integrated dirt collector prevents dust and substrate particles from escaping through the vent holes, keeping the surrounding area clean.

Access, Security, and Maintenance

• Front-opening door with spring-loaded push latch for smooth, one-handed access
• Integrated door lock prevents accidental openings
• Removable top with patented in-frame locking mechanism for secure but convenient removal
• Stainless steel screen top for optimal UVB penetration
• Raised bottom frame provides a stable platform for mounting a heat mat underneath
• Multiple self-closing inlets at the rear top for wires and tubing
• Internal gutters for tidy tube routing
• Dedicated nozzle attachment points for fitting an automatic misting system

Bioactive and Misting Ready

The enclosure is built with bioactive and automated setups in mind. Internal nozzle attachment points make fitting a misting system clean and unobtrusive, while the drainage system handles the resulting water accumulation efficiently. The increased internal volume allows for varied microhabitats with distinct temperature gradients, humidity levels, and concealment areas — all within one enclosure.

The Exo Terra Pro Paludarium 90x45x90cm gives serious keepers the infrastructure to build complex, living environments without compromise. Every design detail — from the lockable top to the waterproof base — reflects a system built around the long-term needs of both the animals and the keeper maintaining them.
