Ahh I read that first comment of yours wrong. Rather than using a large pvc pipe, I use small steel bars about 1/8 of an inch, long enough to go across the top of the cage. Tie my fishing line to it. I double up the line and then thread it though the screen and tie it to my plant. The steel bars are better because the offer better support and don't take up much room on top of the cage at all.
How did you hang the plant? I can't tell what it is hanging fromI took all fake plants out of the cage and immediately came to like it better. The humidity stays up way higher of course, and the leaves retain water better. In comparison to fake plants drying off within a half hour. This makes it so I don't have to mist as frequently! And Sprite enjoys her new potho as wellPretty hard to find her in it somedays!
I took a 1/8 inch steel bar which was just leftover scrap metal, cut a piece slightly longer than the cage width. Tie a piece of 12 or 15 pound test fishing line, depending on plant weight, and tie it to your bar. Then feed it through the top of the cage and tie it to the plant hanger. I clipped the plastic hook off mine and tied it through a smaller hole. It's great because it isn't visible
Is there any other kind of wire that would also work?I took a 1/8 inch steel bar which was just leftover scrap metal, cut a piece slightly longer than the cage width.

I mean yeah you can use wire. Fishing line is just less likely to break you're screen and isn't as visible. I would recommend fishing line.
