product highlights

An easy-to-cut background has an incredible natural look that to beautify your terrarium. An easy-to-cut background that has an incredible natural look. It creates a multi-dimensional habitat that is ideal for climbing reptiles or it can be simply used to beautify the natural look of the terrarium. The color and texture of the background creates a perfectly harmonized environment, humid or dry. The deep ridges in the back are perfect to hide wires or tubing from pumps or Heat Wave Rocks.

The background is made from black polystyrene. Polystyrene has the advantage of providing insulation and is easy to cut to fit any size of terrarium.

Two cut-outs in the back provide easy hiding of multiple wires and/or tubing.

Features:

  • Natural rock look
  • Easily cuts to size
  • Insulates the terrarium, creates an extra dimension
  • For tropical and desert terrariums
  • Made of black, non-toxic polystyrene

Sizing Help
The size of the terrarium background reflects the size terrarium it is intended for:

Example: 12"W x 12"H background fits a 12"W x 12"D x 12"H terrarium

The actual size is slightly smaller than the terrarium in order to fit inside the terrarium frame snug and fit tightly so it does not allow for movement of the background or fall onto the pet.

Large:
  • 18"W x 24"H - fits a 18"W x 18"D x 24"H terrarium

Exo Terra® Reptile Terrarium Background is rated 4.1 out of 5 by 9.
Rated 4 out of 5 by from great This item is meant for a specific ExoTerra line of tanks, so it does not fit standard tank sizes (ex: 10gal, etc). The measurements are not the size of the background, but the size of the tank it fits. For example, the 18x24 background fits the ExoTerra 18x18x24 glass tank (available in store). In the right tank, these backgrounds fit nice and snugly. When I kept anoles in my 18x18x24 tank, I removed this background, because they would get behind it all the time. Now that I am keeping crested geckos, I am buying a replacement background for them to enjoy! The aesthetic appeal is great, and it doubles as regular background decor and climbing space. Cleaning is easy, though after tough washings, the face does wear away somewhat. Definitely recommend this, I wish it was available in-store.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Adds great dimension and looks real! This background looks amazing just like real rock and my Green Tree frogs love climbing/sleeping on it. I bought it for my Exo Terra 18"x18"x24" terrarium and it fits perfect without any gaps for even small crickets to get in. Cut outs in the back allow for wires or tubes to from top to bottom unseen. The background is made for a black polystyrene so it can chip easily. It covers up well, but the rock "finish" though can wear with repeated cleaning. It is only sold separately online but can be bought in store with a Exo Terra Rainforest or Desert kit. I would definitely recommend this product!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Exo Terra Terrarium background Bought the x-large Exo Terra Terrarium which came with a really nice rock looking background. I decided to cover the two side walls of the terrarium, so I ordered two smaller backgrounds and cut them to fit the sides. Now my terrarium has three walls that look like a continuous rock wall - it was so easy. When the over head lights are on, it looks really nice and I did not have to go to any trouble to get this look.

Rated 3 out of 5 by from not what i thought I was looking for a terrarium background, and this is what came up when I searched. I thought it was a background that if I bought enough length, would flow together and look like one piece. Wrong. Each individual piece is a stand-alone unit. What I mean is, the pieces don't flow when you line them up together, so one side will be low and the next piece will be high and it doesn't look good at all. No clips or two-sided tape either. From a distance, it looks really good but up close you can definitely tell it's fake. I have mixed feelings about it but am ultimately returning as I want something that looks uniform. This stuff, you can tell I've got blocks lined up. Also, the box says it's a replacement background for a Exo Terra Glass Terrarium PT-2602. That is not very clear from the website's product description. One piece by itself would look nice though

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Exo Terra Terrarium Background This is a very good terrarium background for anyone who keeps small reptiles or frogs. The surface is a bit delicate, but a bit of non-toxic paint might be used as a repair as time goes on. I'm very pleased with this product and with the service I've gotten from PetSmart. The first one I ordered arrived damaged, so they replaced it with no questions asked.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from REALLY PRETTY I have a leopard gecko and he is only small. In the petsmart store in North Carolina they have this but in a different pattern and it is much prettier. It is a dark brown and has fake green algea that looks really cool :). But this item has some cons that i will list

Rated 1 out of 5 by from exo-terra terrarium background 18x24 The idea is great, and the product would be great, but the size is WAY wrong. The package says that it is 18 inches by 24 inches. I have an aquarium that is 18x48 (a 55 gallon). The background is several inches shy both ways! I measured the box and it is only 17 & 1/4 x 22 & 3/4! I am very disappointed especially because it is not offered in the store and shipping is so high! If you want to use it, get a bigger size and cut it down; unfortunately they do not offer one bigger for mine.

is this product not in stock? if not will it ever be? please let me know I would love to buy this terrarium with the buddha background. 

Asked by: candice silkey

Hi, I was wondering is the medium would fit an exo terra 8x8x12 terrarium? I am really trying to find a background like this one for an exo terra at petsmart but it is hard, please get back to me, I am specifically using it for a crested gecko.

Asked by: Nicole 14

As from other reviews on don't think I want to buy several pieces to fit my tank. I bought the large, low tank 36 x 18 x 12. Do you have replacement background that fits in one piece for this size?

Asked by: Ro74

Can this be used in my Turtle tank
