Aquarium - Small
A compact underwater landscape designed as a refined piece of living art.
The Small Aquarium combines carefully selected aquatic plants, natural stone, wood, and layered substrate to create a balanced composition with remarkable depth for its size.
Designed around clean lines, contrasting textures, and natural planting, the landscape creates the impression of a larger aquatic environment contained within a compact format.
Ideal for smaller interiors, shelves, consoles, offices, or dedicated display areas, the Small Aquarium introduces movement, greenery, and the calming presence of water without overwhelming the space.
Each composition is individually created by PaluVurse, with plant placement, hardscape structure, and available swimming space carefully balanced as part of the final design.
Size: 20 × 10 × 12 in
Style: Freshwater / Planted
Plants: Live, hand-selected aquatic plants
Maintenance: Moderate
Water environment: Fully aquatic
Natural variation in plants, stone, wood, substrate, texture, colour, and final arrangement ensures that every PaluVurse Aquarium is unique.

Your PaluVurse Aquarium is aquascaped as a complete composition. Aquatic plants are selected by PaluVurse from approved current stock according to compatibility, specimen quality, available planting space, availability and the final aquascape.
Additional aquatic planting may be selected from approved categories including Epiphytes, Compact Ferns, Rosette Plants, Groundcovers and Living Moss. PaluVurse selects the final compatible species and placement according to the available space and composition.
Specific plant species, specialty aquatic plants or a substantially different aquascape are available through Custom Builds.
The PaluVurse Aquarium is a planted freshwater ecosystem requiring moderate routine maintenance.
Follow the supplied PaluVurse care guide for lighting, water changes, filtration, plant trimming, cleaning, water quality, and ongoing maintenance.
Maintain appropriate water chemistry and circulation for the plants and any livestock introduced later.
Aquariums must be properly filled, leak-tested, and biologically cycled before livestock is introduced. A functioning filter or clear water does not by itself mean that an aquarium is biologically ready for animals.
Avoid:
Unsuitable water chemistry
Overfeeding or excessive biological load
Blocked, improperly operated, or dry-running equipment
Extreme temperatures or sudden temperature changes
Incompatible cleaners, treatments, or chemicals
Unauthorized modifications to the aquarium or its equipment
Moving or lifting the aquarium while it contains water, substrate, hardscape, plants, or livestock
Place the aquarium on a level, stable, water-resistant support capable of carrying its complete operating weight.
Delivery & Arrival
Your PaluVurse ecosystem is prepared as a completed living composition.
Plants, substrate, hardscape, and other landscape elements are installed wherever safe transportation allows. Any component requiring separate protection during shipment will be clearly identified and accompanied by setup instructions.
Final shipping method: To be confirmed.
When Your Ecosystem Arrives
Inspect the exterior packaging before opening.
Photograph any visible puncture, crushing, wetness, tilting, or other damage.
Carefully unpack the ecosystem.
Photograph the ecosystem and included components before setup.
Keep all packaging until the order has been fully inspected and confirmed.
Visible transportation damage: Report within 48 hours of delivery.
Concealed transportation damage or missing items: Report promptly after discovery, preferably within 7 days of delivery.
Plant concerns: Report within the applicable 14-day plant guarantee period.
These reporting periods help PaluVurse document and process transportation and warranty claims promptly. They do not limit any rights or remedies that cannot legally be excluded under applicable consumer law.
Cancellations
Standard PaluVurse Ecosystem orders may be cancelled within 24 hours of purchase, provided preparation or production has not already begun.
Because each ecosystem contains live plants and is individually prepared and assembled for the order, change-of-mind cancellations are not accepted once preparation or production has begun.
Once an order has shipped, it can no longer be cancelled.
Returns & Exchanges
Due to the living, fragile, and individually composed nature of PaluVurse ecosystems, delivered ecosystems and live plants are not returnable or exchangeable for change of mind.
This does not apply to products that arrive damaged, defective, materially different from the confirmed order, or otherwise qualify for a remedy under the PaluVurse Standard Ecosystem Limited Warranty or applicable consumer law.
Mandatory consumer rights under applicable provincial or territorial law remain unaffected.
12-Month PaluVurse Limited Warranty
Standard PaluVurse Ecosystems include a 12-month written limited warranty covering eligible defects in PaluVurse-supplied materials, fabrication, assembly, seals, installed components, and PaluVurse workmanship under normal use and proper care.
Plant Guarantee
Live plants include a 14-day arrival and establishment guarantee.
Photographs and compliance with the supplied PaluVurse care instructions may be required to assess a plant claim.
Where replacement is appropriate, PaluVurse may provide the same plant when reasonably available or a biologically appropriate substitute of comparable value.
Third-Party Equipment
Third-party equipment is subject to the applicable manufacturer warranty, if any.
PaluVurse separately covers eligible defects resulting from its own installation or connection of that equipment for 12 months.
Exclusions
The written warranty does not cover loss, damage, or failure caused or materially contributed to by circumstances including:
Impact, breakage, accident, misuse, or neglect
Improper or insufficient support
Moving or relocating an ecosystem while improperly supported or while containing materials that should have been removed before transport
Thermal shock, freezing, excessive heat, or other unsuitable environmental conditions
Incorrect setup or unsuitable care
Incompatible cleaners, chemicals, fertilizers, plants, animals, or equipment
Unauthorized repair, alteration, or structural modification
Failure to perform required routine maintenance
An exclusion applies only to the extent that the excluded event caused or contributed to the reported issue.
Natural Variation
Every PaluVurse ecosystem is individually composed using living plants and natural materials.
Plants, stone, wood, substrate, colour, texture, markings, grain, shape, size, and final arrangement naturally vary between ecosystems.
Website photographs are representative of the design character and overall composition unless a specific specimen is expressly identified.
Normal plant acclimatization, limited leaf loss, natural weathering, plant growth, and ordinary biological changes are not defects by themselves.
Consumer Rights
This written warranty is additional to any mandatory legal or implied warranties applicable in the purchaser’s province or territory.
Mandatory consumer rights and remedies remain unaffected.
