Print Profile(1)
Description
Travel to the heart of Mayan civilization with this spectacular modular background for terrariums and aquariums! This detailed design recreates the facade of a ruined temple, perfect for adding depth and mystery to your habitat
Design Features:
100% Scalable: The model can be easily scaled in your slicer to fully adapt to the specific dimensions and needs of your tank or enclosure. The current size is 158 mm long so it can be printed on any printer
- Mayan Iconography: Includes a large central relief of a priest or ruler with a detailed feathered headdress (image_200.png), flanked by jaguar and skull reliefs, as well as textured columns and stairs (image_200.png)
- Modularity: The design is intended to be printed in sections and joined together, adapting to different tank sizes. Hidden joints make it look like a single piece
- Natural Integration: The hollow spaces and reliefs are designed for moss, climbing plants, and roots to grow naturally, mimicking the jungle reclaiming the ruins (image_199.png)
🎲 Ideal for Vivariums, Terrariums, and Aquariums
As you can see in the photos of the printed and assembled model (image_199.png), this background completely transforms the aesthetic of the tank. It provides hiding spots and climbing areas for reptiles, amphibians, or fish, creating a more natural and stimulating environment
🛠️ Recommended Print Details
- Infill: 10-15% (Gyroid pattern recommended) is sufficient for the structure
- Layer Height: 0.16mm or 0.20mm for a good balance between detail and print time
- Filament: PLA is fine for dry terrariums or vivariums with plants, but for aquariums, PETG or filaments specifically classified as food and water safe are recommended to prevent leaching. It is recommended to seal the print with a food-grade epoxy resin for aquarium use
