i have metal screen floor with no subtrate,and a thin piece of wood under screen with stickon tiles 4 easy clean up, just screw on 2 rails slide in bottom

disregard the Lowes PVC tiles, they are too flexible for an enclosure. they could be used for other things though.

I tried wood with marine grade and it didnt last very long, I plan to use a wood bottom, but with corregated carboard ontop , Vinly flooring, ir bat surround sheetine, then silicone all arourd the bottom to seal, These will work with drain systems too at a fraction of the cost of pvc.

my cage came with a hole in the bottom and a peice of plastic on top that you can lift out. the plastic was white and would look hideous, so i bougt a roll of rubber matting and layed it over the plastic. works great! there is strips (dont really know how to explain it or call it) and the water goes beteween them, so no pools

If you are using pine wood for your enclosure make sure to use a sealent of some type as the pine oil (the stuff that smells piny) is bad for reptiles and usually succumbs to moisture. I used poplar for the enclosure and fiberglass with holes drilled in it for the bottom.
