Fernwood Treefern | Reptile Panels - Small - 30.5x15x1.5cm

If you’re building a naturalistic terrarium or vivarium, the background matters just as much as what lives in it. Fernwood Tree Fern Panels are made from natural New Zealand tree fern, offering a functional and visually natural surface for reptiles, amphibians and planted setups.

These panels are highly fibrous and porous, allowing them to hold moisture while still maintaining airflow. This helps create stable humidity levels within the enclosure, making them especially useful for tropical species and planted environments.

One of the standout features is their ability to support life. Epiphytes, mosses, climbing plants and vines can attach directly to the surface, gradually turning your enclosure into a living, growing backdrop rather than a static display.

Thanks to their natural capillary action, water can move through the panels evenly when used with misting or drip systems. This makes it easier to maintain consistent moisture without waterlogging the enclosure.

Lightweight when dry and long-lasting, these panels can also be cut to size, giving you flexibility when designing or upgrading your setup.

At Wonderworld Aquarium and Pet Centre we often recommend tree fern panels for keepers wanting to create a more natural, self-supporting environment, especially in humid or planted terrariums.
