Plexi-glass

Post by coledofner12 »

Where can I get some cheap plexi-glass in Iowa. I have the suction cups for them I just need the plexi-glass. Also where can I get some good climbing wood for my crabs. I don't wanna break my budget.

If you do a search with the search box (top right corner of this page) you should be able to find a TON of information about where to get Plexiglass and climbing wood (cholla).

I don't think anyone else on the forum is from Iowa, but most of the stores mentioned in the results are national chain stores adn, as such, should be in your area as well (Lowes, Michaels, and even pet stores).

Please do use the search feature as Emma has suggested. Another idea is to type in 'second levels' and see what comes up. You can also visit the photo gallery and check out some pictures for ideas that maybe in your budget.

Yes. A quick search on the internet brought up that Plexiglass is actually a trade name for the product Perspex.
