Bioscape Cloud Terrarium Tall Small 20 x 20 x 35cm
A tall glass tank sized for a shelf, not a stand. The Bioscape Cloud Terrarium Tall Small is a 20 x 20 x 35 cm ultra-clear glass tank on a raised base, holding approximately 14 litres and supplied with a glass cover – the compact option in the Tall range for a desktop aquascape or a nano paludarium.
Key features
- 14 L in a tall, compact footprint – 20 x 20 cm base rising to 35 cm, so it sits on a desk or shelf while still giving height for a layered scape.
- 5 mm ultra-clear glass – low-iron glass avoids the green tint standard float glass shows on a tall panel.
- Raised base – the same distinctive look as the rest of the Cloud Terrarium range, in the smallest Tall-format size.
- Glass cover included – helps hold humidity for a nano paludarium or moss build; it isn't sealed, so it won't hold a fully saturated tropical setup airtight.

Bioscape doesn't publish internal dimensions or empty/filled weight for this model. The external footprint above is the figure to check against your shelf or desk space.
What's included / what you'll still need
- Included: the glass tank and a glass cover.

Glass only, despite the finished look – budget separately for lighting, and for filtration and heating if you're running it as a wet aquascape.
Which Cloud Terrarium Tall do I need?
This is the smaller of the two Tall models – pick it over the Tall Large where desk or shelf space is limited and you want a compact nano build rather than a full paludarium.
| Model | External dimensions | Capacity | Best suited to |
|---|---|---|---|
| Cloud Terrarium Tall Small | 20 x 20 x 35 cm | Approx. 14 L | Desktop and nano builds |
| Cloud Terrarium Tall Large | 30 x 30 x 45 cm | Approx. 40.5 L | Larger paludariums and moss walls needing height |
Suitable for, and not suitable for
- Suitable for: nano planted aquascapes, small paludarium builds and desktop moss displays.
- Not suitable for: anyone wanting a ready-to-run kit, or a build that needs real floor-to-ceiling height – the Tall Large gives more room for that.
Safety
Glass tank – support it on a flat, level surface rated for the load. Water alone in a 14 L tank adds roughly 14 kg once full; the glass, substrate and any hardscape add further weight on top of that.
Care and maintenance
Wipe the glass cover regularly if you're running a humid paludarium setup, since condensation can encourage an algae film on the underside over time.
Warranty and delivery
Covered by your consumer guarantee rights under Australian Consumer Law regardless of any additional manufacturer terms. As a glass item it ships boxed.
Common questions
Does this come with a light, filter or heater?
No. It's supplied as the glass tank and a glass cover only – light, filter, heater, substrate and stand are all separate.
How many litres does it hold?
Approximately 14 litres, based on the 20 x 20 x 35 cm external dimensions.
Can I use it dry, as a terrestrial vivarium?
Yes – the raised base and glass cover suit a terrestrial or paludarium setup as well as a fully wet nano aquascape.
What's the difference between this and the Tall Large?
Capacity and height. This Tall Small holds about 14 L in a 20 x 20 x 35 cm footprint; the Tall Large holds about 40.5 L in a 30 x 30 x 45 cm footprint, for a bigger layered build.
