Universal Rocks Crevice Background – 24″ × 16″

Universal Rocks Crevice Background

Detailed Rock Texture Without Taking Up Your Enclosure

The Universal Rocks Crevice Background 24″ × 16″ adds realistic three-dimensional rock texture to an enclosure while maintaining a relatively low profile. With a depth of approximately 2″, it creates an impressive natural backdrop without taking up excessive floor space.

Universal Rocks molded the Crevice design from a basalt outcrop south of Sydney, Australia. As a result, the surface captures the cracks, layers and irregular details found in natural rock formations.

The Crevice background works well in both reptile enclosures and aquariums. Its detailed surface adds visual depth while leaving more usable space in front of the background for your animal, décor and equipment.

Size & Dimensions

24″ × 16″ Crevice Background

Low-Profile 3D Design

The Crevice background is approximately 2″ deep. Therefore, it is a great option when you want realistic three-dimensional rock texture without a background that projects far into the enclosure.

Recommended Uses

Reptile Enclosures

Use the Crevice background to replace a plain rear wall with realistic rock texture. In particular, the shallow profile works well when maintaining usable floor space is important. Branches, plants, hides and other décor can then be arranged in front of the background.

Aquarium Displays

The Crevice style was designed as an aquarium background and provides impressive rock detail without extending far into the tank. As a result, you can create a dramatic rear rock wall while retaining more swimming space.

Naturalistic Displays

The basalt-inspired texture pairs well with plants, wood, rocks and natural substrates. Consequently, the background can become part of the overall habitat design rather than simply covering the rear wall.

Planning Your Installation

Measure Your Enclosure

First, measure the actual interior width and height of your enclosure. The listed 24″ × 16″ size corresponds to external tank dimensions, while the actual background is made slightly smaller to help it fit inside.

Allow for Approximately 2″ of Depth

Next, plan for approximately 2″ of depth from the rear wall. The low-profile design leaves more usable space than deeper 3D backgrounds while still creating substantial visual texture.

Test Fit Before Securing

Finally, test-fit the background before permanently securing it. Check the position of heating, lighting, filtration, branches and other equipment before completing your setup.
