Ant's Kingdom Asteroid (Universe Collection)

The intelligence of ants is out of this world, extraterrestrial! We still only understand a fraction of how ants can cooperate so efficiently. The Universe Collection was created to illustrate this supernatural phenomenon. Build your own universe now, start with this Asteroid and slowly expand to a complete system!

This ant farm is perfectly suitable for both small and medium-sized colonies of species such as Lasius, Myrmica, Pheidole, Messor, and Formica.

These nests are equipped with a foam part, which keeps the nest moist for about 1 week. To moisten the nest, you can wet this foam (syringe included). It absorbs and distributes moisture without the risk of flooding chambers and passages. The foam must therefore remain moist so that the ants find a good environment in this nest.

The system is very practical with this unique water supply. Even cleaning the entire Ant Farm is possible. You first connect another enclosure or nest tube where the ants move to, and then the acrylic nest is easy to unscrew and rinse with water.

The nest is easily expandable through the 10 mm opening on the outside. Other enclosures can be connected with hoses.
