Did you mean aquarium? To me, terrarium is a cage with only a dish of water.
I once built terrarium for a lizard and a snake. The lizard was on top, taking up two thirds of the total space and the bottom was occupied by a snake fat as your arm
in a low rectangular space. Wasn't for me but for kids of the pple I work for.
7.5 feet height plus wheels, 8 feet wide and 3 feet depth. The lizard had metal mesh netting from all sides except bottom and back, with half inch square openings and the snake had plywood from all sides except the front was plexiglass double doors. It wasn't in my line but I can do just about anything.

Would you be allowed to keep bees in it? That's something I'm also very interested in lol

That sounds huge but for a snake the size of your arm it then sounds small lolDid you mean aquarium? To me, terrarium is a cage with only a dish of water.

You'd be surprised how snakes are economical when it comes to their size. Most time you don't see the snake because it spends most of the time tightly coiled inside its 'house' which is a bigger piece of wood hollowed underneath and normal folks are surprised that such a big snake fits in. Once a week or so, you give it a mouse that you buy frozen and have to heat it up with a hairdryer fan... IMO pretty disgusting operation, which the snake gulps down whole (creates a big bump on its body LOL) and retreats to its hideaway soon again. I think it doesn't roam about the cage too much and doesn't need bigger space. In fact, pple keep snakes in much smaller glass walled aquariums type enclosure like the one you show in the OP above. You need heat lamp, I think infrared to keep it warm.

Not going to lie.. I did google this with some caution as that's what my mind saw too hahaAt first glance(with my bad eyes) this closely resembles Fornications. Does this make me dirty minded?
My first terrarium. Doesn't look amazing. I'll be happy as long as it thrives and the cuttings grow in
