Do you mean a Terrarium?
It's like an aquarium, except it is for air-breathing creatures. It has dirt in the bottom and plants, instead of being filled with water.

Well I think you meant terrarium. Which is a dry habitat for animals, reptiles, and amphibians etc. I found this brief explanation on-line.....
* Aquarium, simulating a water habitat; for instance a river, lake or sea; but only the submerged area of these natural habitats. Plants in the water will use some nitrogen present within the system, and will provide areas for organisms to hide and forage.
* Insectarium, containing insects.
o Formicarium, with species of ants.
* Paludarium, simulating a rain forest or swamp environment. It also can be seen as an aquarium interconnected with a terrarium, having both the underwater area as well as the shore.
o Riparium, a paludarium with circulating current through different-leveled pools
* Terrarium, simulating a dry habitat, for instance desert or savannah.

Do you mean a terrarium? If so, it's a large glass container used for planting.
