Yes, the tag should be renamed terrarium. It should be singular, just like aquarium, pond, cage, and enclosure.
In a related note, someone created the tag terarrium, which is misspelled. This misspelled tag needs to be deleted.

1You can fix the misspelled tag by correcting it on the one question where it's used. (Just delete that tag and add the correct one.) Unused tags will evaporate. – Monica Cellio Oct 17 '13 at 14:26

Yes, I was the one that misspelled terrarium. :) The system won't let me create a "terrarium" tag, because "terrariums" already exists. – Ben Miller - Remember Monica Oct 17 '13 at 14:37

You can't create a tag that's an initial substring of another tag. I recommend that you change the misspelled one to the existing plural tag for now to at least get all the questions on one tag, and then if that tag gets renamed we won't miss any. – Monica Cellio Oct 17 '13 at 15:31

I created the terrariums if the other misspelt tag has not questions associated with it, it will die.
As for the validity of terrariums, it is not suitable to use aquariums for some animals. Giving how popular the site is, I'm pretty sure that the tag will have good use.
Like other tags that will pop up for animal housing etc
