    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Just received another animal plastics rack and couldn't be more pleased. Ali did a great job communicating and like my other AP racks this one didn't disappoint. This time I went with the economy line and I am very pleased. Easy setup and ready to go in 15 minutes.

I agree 100% You will never go wrong with AP and Ali is the best out there! She takes all the time you need to answer your questions and everything get to you absolutely perfect!
 
Agreed! Just received my glass for my T8 cage. Within the first few hours I could already tell that they're great. Keeps humidity great, and the lights significantly help the temperature inside (my room is usually between 69-72 degrees). Great value for what you get, look really attractive, and SUCH a big improvement from glass aquariums. 10/10
 
I agree! He is a good guy to work with and his product is quality.

I bought their 4x2x1 cages. For 150$ they a really good deal. Works great for my dwarf boas. Only reason I switched is I started building my own racks, otherwise if I had the cash I would order more.
 
Just got my second T8 from AP.. I asked for the lights to be put in the front instead of the back, and it's a dramatic difference, it looks much brighter. Even though technically it didn't qualify for quick ship due to the lights, they did it anyway and the cage arrived the day after they shipped it out. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.
 
Full Cancellation

I had made a pretty complex and custom order with Ali about 2 weeks ago, but found some used cages through a local breeder and wanted to cancel.

Ali let me cancel and gave me a full refund without a second thought. Amazing customer service. If I do end up needing more cages, I'll know who to go to!!

Thanks,
Zach
 
I have one of their T10 with sliding acrylic doors, I love it. Plan on buying 2 more when my babies get big enough that I don't have to worry about them slipping out between the crack of the sliding doors. Definitely worth the money.
 
I just wanted to put in my good word about Animal Plastics cages--I'll definitely order from them again!

I wanted to get myself a quality cage for the Dumeril's boa I was going to order (this was around two months back). I ordered one of the quick ship sliding glass door T8s from Animal Plastics. I was contacted not long after I placed my order, and I had asked them a couple questions during this time. Ali was quick to respond and answered all my questions!

As it was getting closer to the ship date, I was contacted by Ali and told that the glass for my cage was on back order (and was due to come in later that week), and they let me know that they were going to ship the cage that day so I could apply the sealant. They would send the glass as soon as they got it. They didn't charge me extra for shipping the package in two parts.

I got the cage set up over the holidays, and it's gorgeous! The quality is fantastic, the instructions were easy to follow, and I had no issues setting it up!

The communication was excellent, and the product I received was exactly what I wanted! I definitely plan on ordering from them again for future cages!
 
I now have ten T8 cages and zero issues with any of them
plan on ordering another two this week as they have them on sale at $150 right now AND its a quick ship item!
How can you go wrong!
 
they are my go to if I need a cage/rack quick. high quality and affordable. I prefer to build my own but if I'm lazy or don't have time AP is the only choice.
 
Another sterling experience with AP!
About 8 weeks ago I ordered a hatchling rack from then, paid in full and expected it to be about 10 to 12 weeks as they said
Well about 4 weeks into the order, I was given a rack by a colleague.
I contacted AP and would have fully expected them to say no we cannot change the order and obviously would have been content with that as not their fault.
However they were quick to let me change to another t8 tank for just a measly $5 charge, cant get much better customer service than that
And that was a quick ship item so I had it about 2 weeks ago and yet again it was top notch quality and assembly is a piece of cake...
Now have 2 x6 racks of these t8 tanks side by side.
Will never buy any different brand at this point
Excellent product, excellent price and excellent customer service, I dont know where it gets any better than that!
 
I love AP Cages!! I was a little hesitant at first. I was afraid the price reflected the quality but I decided to give them a try anyway. I ordered 3 T8 cages and as soon as I opened up the box I was happy. Easy to assemble, lightweight, and visually appealing (website doesn't do them justice). Since receiving my order, I've convinced three others to get these cages and soon I'll be ordering several more T8's and some T70's to replace all of my vision cages.
