A great and durable decoration for your home, office, or patio!

Desktop Terrarium Kit

Our terrarium kits are a perfect addition to your office or desk requiring minimal maintenance and care. As long as your jar is in direct sunlight, your water and plants will be looking great! It will thrive even in tap water with a water change once every 2 weeks or as you see fit. A few Aquatic Arts employees have these on their desks & love them! It is fantastic gift for children to teach them about the responsibility of owning and taking care of an aquarium. Though no animals are present, its an easy opportunity to discuss the basics of an ecosystem and general scientific processes such as photosynthesis. Furthermore, they can make great gifts as they are easy to set up and maintain for friends & family that may not be in the hobby. Similar to having an aquarium or being closer to nature, these can help relieve stress & have therapeutic benefits to spaces where an aquarium is not possible.

PLEASE NOTE : no animals should be housed in these jars!

Certain small pockets of the hobby & industry still allow this practice to happen! Please help the community to stop this practice & provide proper homes for all livestock.

Directions:

1. Rinse river rocks before adding to the jar to remove excess debris.

2. Add river rocks & smooth out to desired level.

3. Position the sea fan to your liking.

4. Position the floating moss ball( w/weight added) or mushroom tree.

5. Slowly fill the jar with aquarium safe water (for the java moss).

6. Close the Lid & Enjoy!

For the safety of our animals, we only ship live fish, crabs, and select other inverts exclusively via UPS 1 Day Air. If your order contains this item, you will only see UPS 1 Day Air as a shipping option during checkout. If other items are in your cart that can ship with 2 day or standard shipping options the only shipping method you can still select is UPS 1 Day Air.

UPS 1 Day is a description of the duration of time a shipment will spend in transit once it has been shipped. This does not guarantee the package will be shipped the same or next day from which the order was placed.

Shipping Schedule for this service

UPS 1 Day: Monday through Thursday

Current Handling Time:

1-9 business days

Here at Aquatic Arts, we consider the welfare of the live animals we are shipping to be of the foremost importance. This process is much more involved than simply creating a shipping label and affixing it to a box. Depending on the order, it takes from 4 to 7 people to complete this process properly. We check the weather conditions here where they fly out of the Indianapolis UPS facility and the destination for each shipment. We start early each morning and go through a multi-step process to have the day's shipments prepared in time for the UPS pickup. The volume of orders in our system also affects the processing time. Therefore our stated handling time is 1-9 business days.

Shipping Rate

Pricing is by size of package needed to fill entire order and distance it must travel. It will be calculated at checkout.
