Kickstarter funded Magnetic planter system

[Tiggles]

I've been looking for a magnetic planter for my enclosure for a bit since I hate the look of planters in the enclosure. I stumbled across this thing called Urbio.

Basically it's a magnetic backplate that you can mount on a wall and then buy these magnetic planters for it.

Since it's going on a meshed enclosure you can just toss the mounting bracket and sandwich them between the mesh if the magnet is strong enough.

My only concern is that the magnet on the cups are not strong enough to hold still with the mesh in between.

Anyone see this before? Any thoughts? I'm still a super novice to the craft (I actually haven't purchased my chameleon yet i'm still making his enclosure) But I've owned various reptiles for years and can't see an issue with them.

My main gripe is that it's white only but I can paint them brown to fit in.

I have a couple of magnetic planters ,I bought on Ebay, that are made of painted foam, to look like rocks. They're called Magnaturals. They look pretty cool.

They where going to be my first choice but a 4inch planter is kinda small.

Urbio systems are bunk. They can't hold up the weight of a plant with wet soil, let alone a climbing chameleon. Rig something better yourself.

Thanks for the info, I'll look elsewhere.
