yes of course, i will use plexi glass - I assumed that was a given though hehe, I wouldn't use regular glass in the cage, I think that spells out disaster. :confused:
The reason I have a wood-framed lid is so it can latch closed, there is no way anything can escape from that enclosure.
As for the bottom, I was planning on cutting a hole in the bottom and putting plexi over the hole, then attach the UTH to the plexiglass. That will allow for good heat transfer.
