    it looks kool to me. i dont think its worth 300 tho. ive seen a couple ppl make custom backrounds out of baked clay. when it comes down to it u would save urself ALOT of money if you just spend the money on a blank tank and do the work yourself. ive seen 3d rock backgrounds and cork ones as well precut at 12x18. just get a couple of those and rock n roll.

    So not worth 300$. If you were handy with tools and lumber you could build that exact same for 100$ or less.

    If your handy you could build that yourself no problem. but plexi glass is not cheap. from the size that cage looks i bet there is $100 worth of plexi alone in there.

    Make the cage out of wood, or pvc, or whatever other suitable marial you want, inlay glass or plexi for windows, the floor / background is probably shaped styrofoam with quickcrete or similar painted on.
