    I can only find screen tops!
    Hello hello!

    So I have been looking into getting a custom terrarium for a minute now but all of them are way out of my price range. I found a 36x18x18 front opening I think would be perfect for my BP to love and grow in but it the top is a screen top.

    Anyone kniw now where I could get a solid top for it? Or any ideas on how I can make it solid?
    Thanks in advance for your help! :)

    If it is an Exo Terra or zoo med, you can purchase glass tops here http://www.neherpetoculture.com/enclosuresglass They fit over the screen part.

    I have always built my lids out of plywood. Easy to cut out holes for lights and ventilation and put screen over them. I also made one out of acrylic, and just drilled small ventilation holes. If you have an exo terra enclosure, and it sounds like you do to me, NE herpetoculture sells glass inserts that look like they sit in with the frame of the screen top. I have never used them and just googled "exo terra enclosure solid top", thinking that someone has made a product like it, once I read your post. But they just look like glass sheets, easy to get at a Home Depot or Lowes, and have them cut it for you to your dimensions.
