About this deal
Easy to install or modify, these backgrounds are the very best available and will provide you and your reptile or amphibian pets with many years of use as they climb, rub against and explore the 3 dimensional surface.
Like all exo terra natural terrarium decorations, the colour and texture of the rock terrarium background has been chosen to create a perfectly harmonized environment, humid or dry.With the HDPE upgrade, two moves across three times zones have been smooth and combined with wear and tear from heat and humidity repeatedly no damage has been incurred to this cage. Like all Exo Terra natural terrarium decorations, the colour and texture of the Rock Terrarium Background has been chosen to create a perfectly harmonized environment, humid or dry (2).
The background is made from black polystyrene, so it will not be obvious when the background is accidentally damaged (white polystyrene would be very obvious when the coating is damaged). The foam material is lightweight and easy to install, making it convenient for both beginners and experienced reptile owners. It was very easy to put together and although it does have some blemishes from being made from recycled material, the overall appearance is really nice.
It also serves a functional purpose by providing insulation and creating hiding spots for pets, promoting their overall well-being. The background works equally well in a humid or dry environment and the deep ridges in the back are good at hiding wires or tubing from pumps or heat rocks. The polystyrene is also a good insulator and because it has a black backing it's easy to tell if it has become damaged. I will say that if you have a second set of hands, it makes things go a bit faster, but it's in no way impossible to do on your own.
