Custom sizing available on many habitat designs, including large multi-panel builds.

A decorative 3D background that gives a terrarium a realistic, lifelike setting. Its design is inspired by the rock formations and root structures of the African savannah.
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.

Details
- Multi-level rock terraces with a lifelike surface structure.
- Organically curved root and rock shapes create depth and add climbing and resting areas.
- A small cave opening in the lower area gives a hiding place.
- The realistic relief adds depth and makes the terrarium look larger.
- Climbing, basking and retreat areas encourage natural behaviour, and the structured surface is easy for animals to grip.
- The rock steps improve temperature distribution.
- Size 3 is assembled from 8 interlocking panels with hexagonal dowels for a clean, secure installation.
Where it works
Best in desert and savannah terrariums for bearded dragons, geckos, skinks, agamas and small snakes, and also as a background for dried plant arrangements or decorative terrariums. It also suits freshwater and nano aquariums, shrimp and betta tanks, vivariums and paludariums, 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.
