Hi everyone  I have seen lots of pics of gerbils in their aquariums and they have little corner ledges with a side on them so the bedding doesn't fall out I guess. I think they are glass cuz they are see through. Anyways does anyone know where to get them  ? I live in Canada so I have pet land , pet smart ,pet valu and maybe pet cetera Thanks  |

You can get plexiglass cut at just about any hardware store if you wanted to go that direction. You could just use some aquarium sealant and glue 'em in yourself- but keep in mind you'd have a hard time getting them off.

Their actually not that hard to get off, just have to use a sharp pocket knife or womething and cut along the seem and what not, i had to do it to one of my tanks.

Eh not really, just cut across the seam, wiggle the piece back and fourth so it comes off easier then peal off the silicone, <<< That part might take a little while lol, But its not to hard

yes i used a knife before to take some stuff off that was fixed with silicone and make sure an adult helps you as well as you need a strong knife or the knife will bent and maybe brake!

i dont know where you get plexiglass from. but if it is what i think it is, a glass lookalike sheet of plastic then yes you should be able to get some at DIY stores. Then just cut a line in it with a sharp knife several times along a ruler or something very straight and can just getntly bend it by the cut and it should break in a straight line, like you do with tiles
