Can anyone reccamend me any sites that sell nice looking enclosures? Like the tarantula ones? That's way to pricey! I'm looking for 3-4 containers, similar to that size, but cheap!
Container help?

I bought 3 exo terra 12x12x18s for 20 each from a fellow frog hobbyist. Sweet caging for a few groups of ghosts and acanthops

Yeah I've heard that too. Any chance that there's something simpler but already made?

Lexan is pretty cheap. I'd use that, a hole saw and some hot glue and you're all set!
I made one and I think the pic is in the Bugatorium post, it had hinges, and 3 holes in the front so the fly bottles could fit in. It was easy to make and we made a frame of wood with mesh on bottom for the heat tape to be under and the heat could come up. We use acrylic and a acrylic knife to cut it, I think the directions on how to use the knife is in the Bugatorium post too. Then you just get the glue for the acrylic and the acrylic pieces and yea, it was not to expensive doing it that way, we had the material, just had to order the hinges and knob.
