[QUOTE="m0lsx, post: 225257, member: 29323"] Personally, I don't. But I do not doubt that others have had T's caught in the mesh. But I never have. But I do not put climbers into tall enclosures & with enclosures like that, you cannot increase the amount of substrate, due to the front doors. Plus why waste all that substrate when a shallower plastic tank is going to do the job better? My biggest concern with the mesh is that it often leaves very sharp pieces of wire poking out around the edges of it. That is something I always check for & which I hot glue over if I find. Also, be aware that drilling perspex is not an easy task. Do not use a new drill, do not use a blunt drill, or the perspex will crack. What I do with perspex is use a new drill & then use emery paper to quickly take the edge off it. [/QUOTE]
