Clever furnishing ideas for your terrarium
Under "Miscellaneous" you will find practical aids and creative extras that you can use to customise your terrarium and optimise its functionality. Whether natural decorations, useful accessories or small technical components: with the right furnishings, you can create an environment that suits the animal species, climate and your desired look.

Backdrops and 3D landscapes add depth to the terrarium and provide additional climbing surfaces. From cork panels to textured 3D backdrops, habitats such as rainforests, savannahs or rocky landscapes can be convincingly recreated.
The substrate is crucial for climate and hygiene: depending on the species, sand-clay mixtures, humus/forest soil substrates or drainage structures (e.g. in tropical terrariums) are suitable. These can be used to create specific wet areas, burrowing sites or planted areas.
Hiding places, caves and cork tubes are essential for stress-free husbandry. Well-placed hiding places (warm/cool, dry/damp) allow the animals to choose their ideal spot independently.
Water points and small highlights can improve drinking opportunities and, with the right setup, support the microclimate. It is always important to ensure that they are easy to clean and have a secure, stable base.
Tip
Always tailor the setup to the species and climate. The better the decoration, substrate and technology match the natural habitat, the more stable the temperature and humidity will remain – and the more comfortable the animals will feel.
