Is the black part plastic, because if it is I've seen people use those. I don't know how well they work as I've never tried them myself. But you could give them a try.

If it's plastic it seems good to me. I've never used it before but seems suitable.

I wouldn't use them. Bad air ventilation IMO, but you should ask other members. *bump* @bpatters @CavyMama

My coroplast is the same height as my cubes, and it's been that way for 5 years (and they still get their poop over it). I've never had circulation problems because the whole top is open. It's not quite the same thing as an aquarium, which would have circulation problems.

E top would be open
the reason I can't get them is they don't sell them in any shops in Ireland and the post age so the plastic ones is about double but if they are not the best for pigs I won't buy them:)

That's why I included the link to Amazon.UK. It doesn't have to be in stores near you. Just order them online

@Pipandpoppy this site has cubes for the UK and it's a little more expensive than the amazon ones but you get more cubes for your money (broken link removed) :)
