Description

  • Virgin cork
  • Fits 12 x 12 in
  • About 11.5 x 11 in
  • Cut to size

Virgin cork bark is all natural, resists mould and mildew, and holds up in high humidity, so it suits tropical and bioactive setups. Good airflow and regular cleaning still matter in a humid tank. The rough bark also gives climbing geckos and frogs something to grip.

Using it in your enclosure

  • Sized for standard 12 x 12 in tanks: inside sizes vary by brand, so measure your tank and test the fit before you cut or fix it.

  • Cut or join: trim a panel to size, or fit several together for one seamless background.

  • Planted: attach live plants and mosses for a living display.

  • Held in place by its fit, or with aquarium-safe silicone without mould inhibitors if you want it fixed. Let the silicone cure fully before your animals go back in.
