It is ideal, from what I understand, for cham cages. The 1" X 1/2" openings are preferrable, but I think 1x1 would be fine too. I've been looking all over for the same material with no luck. If you know where I can get some, I'd appreciate it. Home Depot and Lowe's around here(NC)don't carry it.

Ive been looking for some as well, all I can find is plastic mesh which will work I guess, but I cant set lights on top of it or plants if its used as the bottome
Id love to have the PVC wire though
