Rear panels are indispensable in the terrarium to ensure that the kept terrarium animals feel safe. Without rear panels, the animals would be subjected to a degree of permanent stress that should not be underestimated. Indeed, when keeping more nervous animals, such as basilisks and water dragons, the side panes should also be screened with non-transparent material. Three-dimensional or textured rear panels also provide additional areas for climbing species. Rear panels can also accommodate plants which turn the terrarium into an attractive eye-catcher in every home. The needs of the different species should be taken into account when choosing the type of rear panel and texture. Gekkonidae for instance need smooth surfaces and would not get a sure footing on rough materials. Species with claws on the other hand must be able to get a footing in a rear panel texture. You will find a wide spectrum of different rear panels in the HOBBY range.
