For standing water you can use vinyl ester resin, polyester resin, epoxy resin, solvent-based epoxy paint, rubberized pool paint (non-chlorinated), polyurea (note, NOT polyurethane), some truck bed liners and many of the elastomeric emulsions out there.
Silicone sticks to some of these sealers but not others. Keep this in mind if you want the standing water to be visible through a glass panel like a paludarium.
Drains are doable but a source of leaks if not sealed properly.
Not sure about the ventilation but for sure ventilation below the main viewing panel is a good idea to reduce condensation. You should be able to add more computer fans after the fact so starting with less than you need seems like a good idea. Of course you could always just shut some off as well.
