Stackable plastic cages

Stefan-A · 08-19-2007, 09:50 AM

Does anybody here have any positive or negative experiences with plastic stackable terrariums, for example Vision, Showcase etc. cages?

I find them quite expensive. No experience though...

Stefan-A · 08-19-2007, 12:09 PM

Indeed they are, especially since nobody in this country sells them. But I would still like to know if people who have used them thought they were worth the price.

I still have this crazy dream of designing an affordable model myself.

I'll have to let you know....I've got a set of them coming soon. But I do agree they are kind of expensive.

I'm currently building some cages, 36 to be precise...I'll post some pictures soon, and if you like it, I can also look up what is cost me...But, since i'm a student, I can assure you its affordable...

That'd be great!

I was thinking about an affordable model as a possible business idea.

Something really simple to make, like one of those plastic pet boxes. The kind people usually keep their cats and dogs in when they travel. Practically just two nearly identical halves with a swinging or sliding door.

okay, posted something...not plastic, but very easy to build and I have high expectations!

Yeah, they look very good. I have slightly different requirements at the moment, though.

I use some of the plastic molded vivariums with glass sliding doors and the only problem i have found is they don't have adequate ventilation but that can easily be fixed. They are easy to clean.

Have a look at these. I don't know of anyone who has used them and I'm not sure how well they would ventilate through the corners, but they look great and are stackable. You can even buy dividers to help save some more space and money.
If anyone here has used them, I'd like to hear what you think about them as I have thought about getting a couple myself.
