Description:
Transform your terrarium or vivarium into a lush, dynamic landscape with this printable rock background.
This model is designed to add immediate vertical depth to your enclosure. It features a detailed, realistic rock texture and includes three integrated planting pockets. These compartments are perfect for creating a "living wall" effect, allowing you to plant trailing species like Pothos or String of Turtles in the top sections, and ferns or mosses in the larger lower section.
Key Features:
- Three Planting Zones: Dedicated spaces built directly into the wall to hold substrate and plants.
- Default Size: The model is natively designed at 25cm x 25cm (approx. 9.8" x 9.8"), making it a perfect fit for many standard cube terrariums.
- Fully Scalable: Need a different size? This design is easily scalable in your slicer. Scale it up for larger tanks or down for nano-enclosures without losing the rock detail.
- Bioactive Ready: Ideal background for bioactive setups for geckos, frogs, or invertebrates, providing climbing surfaces and planting areas.
Print Settings:
- Material: For humid terrarium environments, PETG is recommended for long-term durability and moisture resistance. PLA can be used for drier setups but may degrade over time in high humidity.
- Layer Height: 0.16mm works great and highlights the rock texture well.
- Infill: 5-15% Gyroid (or similar structural infill) is sufficient.
- Walls/Perimeters: Recommend at least 3 walls for structural integrity and water resistance.
- Supports: The model is designed to be support-free.
