To be honest i tried to go through extreme habbitats ended up waiting 3 months for a delivery so i canceled and they will no longer talk to me about order placements so i do have to go elsewhere.

The shipping and handleing was only an additional 38$ but just make sure order a little more and you can sell off the extras to make a little money back.

I have to import my specimens and enclosures because i had a bad experience with tangled in web/extreme habitats. Just my experience everyone else may not.
Import your specimens? You don't just order from Arachnophiliacs or Tarantula Canada then instead?

Recently just discovered tarantula canada and have been overly satisified with them. They are great people but before that yes i was purchasing specimens from the states and not to offend anyone but that was way more of a hassel. Things are much better now i just import cages from reptile supply co they will even help you in special builds. Only side part is buy bulk so you can cover some of the costs :)

As I mentioned in other thread(s) Cornel's World has starting making them. Had a few at the Western Canadian Reptile Expo in August. When I asked about them they custom make them to spec., but these folks are veterans at making enclosures, it would be a fantastic finished product.

Likely more pricey than an Exo Terra enclosure, but still cheaper than importing one from the U.S.

Hey guys! I have an L. Parahybana, P. Metallica and L. Violaceopes. I’m looking for 3 matching acrylic enclosures. 2 arboreal and 1 terrestrial. I live in Barrie, ON and have no idea where to get these around here. I’ve heard of Jamie’s Tarantulas but I know they only ship in the States. Any help would be appreciated, thank you!

Try the Amac site bro.....its the same boxes that jamie ships....u can get a couple of sheets of microscreen from ebay if you are looking to ventilate via a quarter-sized hole or choose to drill small holes along the sides ( i do both ). Amac should ship to canada as well. https://www.amac1960.com/

You can also try https://www.containerstore.com/welcome.htm These guys carry amac boxes as well at good prices. Most of the stuff i use for my slings are amac. Cheap enough that if you break one of them, its not a big deal....and sturdy enough to be re-used later for other slings.

Was lucky enough to find a plastics vendor near where i live and I can have them cut acrylic panel to the dimensions and thickness of my choosing. A tad pricey but, like you said, Acrylic is nice. Its either that or glass.

Pioneer plastic display cases and a soldering iron work very well for me.
