What species/ genus will be housed. That will give people a better understanding of what you want.

I have a bunch of plaster nests that I bought off someone (who proceeded to ship them in the worst way possible) that have cracks and minor damage. I can't say about how reliable they are, as I have never used them. But if you're interested, pm me.

Oooh then you want the most secure nests around to keep those things in. I never liked tetras but one colony I had was fun.

yes, you want secure. as we have found out, mineral spirits are the best way to contain them. they will eat olive oil... :facepalm:
