  • Extensive colour and finish choices so the piece can match your enclosure.
  • Free shipping to Canada, the US and select European countries on these listings.

Tundra is a dimensional 3D back wall with sculpted layered rock formations, strata, integrated shelters, ledges and basking areas. A major choice for large enclosures, with convenient XL variants including 48 × 24 in plus custom dimensions and proportions available by quote.

IMPORTANT — COLOUR & FINISH: Many product photos show hand-painted examples to highlight the sculpted details. Standard orders ship unpainted in the PETG colour and filament finish you select. Rock layers, cracks, ledges, roots and other surface features are physically sculpted into the 3D model, giving the print real dimensional texture and relief. Painted shading, highlights, weathering and multicolour effects shown in example photos are not included unless explicitly stated.

Need a different size? The listed variants are convenient standard sizes, not the limits of what we can make. Many designs can be resized in width, height and depth, and their proportions can be adjusted to better fit your enclosure. Small dimensional changes often do not materially affect the price; custom pricing is based primarily on the number of modular panels required. Message Molten Modern with your enclosure dimensions for a custom quote.

Custom sizing: how to measure

For a custom back wall, measure the inside usable space of your enclosure—not the manufacturer's external dimensions. Allow enough clearance for comfortable installation and assembly. Account for substrate depth and any vents, lamps, heaters, doors, braces, cables, filters, plumbing or other equipment that reduces the available space.

Send us your usable width × height × desired maximum depth, your preferred design, and details or photos of any obstructions. You are responsible for providing accurate usable dimensions and sufficient installation clearance. If you're unsure, message us before ordering and we'll help plan the panel layout and provide a custom quote.

Details

  • Multi-level rock formation with plateau-like levels, small ledges and integrated cave areas.
  • On the right, an implied stone staircase leads up to a raised platform.
  • Flat to medium relief, so it takes up little space in the terrarium but still creates depth.
  • Clear sediment lines like layered sandstone, with irregular cracks and natural edges for a realistic look.
  • Several shelters under the rock plates give animals places to retreat.
  • Raised areas for basking spots and structured surfaces for climbing.
  • Size 4 and Size 5 are each assembled from 8 interlocking panels with hexagonal dowels for a clean, secure installation.

Where it works

Steppe and semi-desert species and tundra or highland themes, such as juvenile bearded dragons, leopard geckos (as a decorative element) and smaller lizards. It also works as a diorama background for aquariums or model building, and suits freshwater and nano aquariums, shrimp and betta tanks, terrariums, vivariums and paludariums, reptile, amphibian and invertebrate enclosures, naturalistic builds, and tabletop gaming, D&D and wargaming scenery.

Good to know

  • To anchor it in an aquarium, glue it to a flat stone or acrylic sheet with hot glue or superglue, or bed it in with aquarium-safe silicone. Drilling a few small holes in the base also lets water in and reduces buoyancy.
  • Measure the inside of your enclosure before ordering, and leave a little room for installation.
  • Some photos show hand-painted examples. This piece ships unpainted.

Colours

First choose a finish (Basic, Matte, Marble, Sparkly/Galaxy/Metallic or Glow-in-the-Dark), then pick a colour from that finish. Sparkly/Galaxy/Metallic includes our Galaxy, Sparkly and Metallic colours. There are 89 PETG colours in total, and the colour charts at the end of the photos show each one. Want something that is not listed? Contact us and we will try to source it.

Quality and care

Printed slowly at high resolution with thick walls, so it is sturdier than most printed decor. Fine layer lines and small variations are normal and make each piece unique. PETG is non-toxic and easy to clean with soap or alcohol. Colours can look slightly different on screen.

Delivery times

Your piece is printed after you order it and ships within 7 business days. That part is our guarantee. Everything below is the carrier's, and starts the day your parcel ships rather than the day you order.

We use recognized, tracked carriers on every route, to every region. Once a parcel leaves our workshop it is in the carrier's hands, so delays caused by the carrier, by customs or by weather are outside our control and we cannot be held responsible for them. If a parcel stalls, contact us and we will chase it with you.

  • Canada: 2 to 8 business days after shipping, through local delivery partners. This service does not deliver to PO boxes.
  • United States: 2 to 6 business days after shipping. A customs broker clears the shipment, usually the next business day after it reaches a branch, and it crosses the border within two business days. United States territories, Alaska, Hawaii and military addresses (APO and FPO) can take up to 20 business days.
  • International: 5 to 22 business days after shipping, with full tracking.

Personally, I love this company. The owner was extremely nice and patient with my request. Received a custom enclosure 3-D print. Personally I think it looks great. Just wanted to give my gecko some more enrichment.
