Store bough terrariums have a thinner glass which may not withstand being filled with water. Also, if used to hold reptiles and such a good thorough cleaning is needed to remove urine and such. Do not use a soap as it will leave an oily residue which will transfer to the water. Best bet is a vinegar solution. Check to see water fill limit on terrarium.
