Plexiglass questions...

I'm setting up a new cage for my panther 18x18x36. I want to do the plexi glass thing on the back and 1/2 (vertically) of each side panel. This will help with moisture and keeping water from hitting the walls of the room, etc.

I have a few questions if anyone has experience with this:


  • Affix the plexi inside or outside of the cage?

* I think inside may help the water drain correctly and not drip onto the floor I use holes in the bottom and a funnel, tubing, and bucket for drainage/collecting water.

* BUT, outside gives the option of easily removable pannels.

* Inside would also mean the chameleon can't climb on that section of the cage (hm...concern? I guess they don't really need to).

  • What is best method of attaching plexi to cage?

  • Reflection a problem like glass? Is these really a concern?

*I've considered lining the plexi with aquarium background or buying plexi that has a rough surface (or doing it myself), which will remove possibility of relection.
 
I use plexiglass in one of my enclosures,and I secured it with velco so that if need be, i can remove it. There are no problems with reflections that Ive seen. I put the plexiglass on the inside.
