Does anyone know some good websites for Paludarium supplies? I'm planning on making a Paludarium with a false bottom but have been having trouble finding a site with everything I need.

Ahura-sama

Egg Crate (the square pattern fiberglass? plastic? sheet) - Lowes/Home Depot (I got mine from Lowes)
Silicone caulk - Lowes/Home Depot
Great Stuff Foam - Lowes/Home Depot. I find HD selling them for cheaper than Lowes: 12 oz for like 4 buck compares to Lowes 8 oz, same price.
Fiberglass window cover sheet - Lowes/Home Depot. Get the sun-proof one. It has finer weave than regular mosquito-proof. HD probably has it for cheaper than Lowes.

For substrate you have two choices between coconut based and peat moss. Lowes has peat moss and all thing related to it. Get coconut stuffs from chain petstores.

Personally, I recommend coconut-based since it is seriously more environment conscious. HOWEVER, coconut bleach when in contact w/ water, turning it amber. Doesnt affect ph for as far as all my test.

I'd also recommend using egg-crate over Styrofoam. Stronger, just as light, doesnt rub off, and most likely cheaper.
