I have the plastic tracks adhered with silicon only...I used to use apox resin but it was not elastic enough and as soon as it dried for 2 months it fell off like it wasn"t there...boy was that a hassle...(figure out what got out from the pic I just sent you..lol)...My wife was not happy.....My room is a sealed snake room(all the safety protocals) and I got to keep the snakes...lol...I have never had a problem or an escape with the silicon sealant for the tracks.....The sliders are plexiglass

How does the sliding door stay 'locked' and also, what kind/size bracekts did you use to secure the shelves to the wall? And what about ventilation, does the air circulate enough in a literally ALL glass enclosure? Just curious. I would love to stack my 2 snakes on shevles on a wall, but would have to make it a sliding glass fron to do it, and wanted to make sure it is all ok...

There are holes all along the tops and bottoms of the plexi sliders ...more than enough for the inside area volume......

So let me see if I've got this right...tip an aquarium on it's side. Glue in tracks with silicone. Cut plexi sliders, and drill vent holes. drop sliders in the tracks and you're done? Seems pretty simple.
