For anyone interested in very sturdy acrylic cage alternatives, I'm testing out using acrylic ballot boxes that i've drilled holes in.

They can be a little pricey as you get into the larger sizes (12x12x12 are around $50), but if you can find them wholesale or get free prime shipping, etc. then they definitely seem to be worth it.
Simply make sure that you have practiced or know how to drill holes in acrylic as chipping can occur quite easily. Sure they come with a nicely sized slot already but that is by no means big enough for proper ventilation.
Just thought I'd share this if anyone else wanted to give it a go as well!
