I have a clear cup for feeding my veiled but its on a slight angle and the roaches keep climging out. how do i strap the cup in so that it bear his weight but wont rip more holes in the cage? i need to be able to remove the cup to wash it from the supplement residue or put a new cup in.
 
Fishing wire works wonders. Cut 2 small holes at the top of the feeder cup on either side, and string the fishing wire through.
 
I also cut small holes in the bottom of my feeder cup to allow water to fall out if any condensation builds inside the cup.
 
In lieu of fishing line, I use rare earth magnets and hot glue. I have also used zip ties run up through the edges of the top and then capture the end of the zip tie with another as it pokes out of the top of the seams of the cage. I'll post a pic. when I can. Easier seen than explained. As they say, a picture is worth...
