Ant's Kingdom Saturn (Universe Collection)

The intelligence of ants is from another planet, extraterrestrial! We still only understand a small part of how ants can cooperate so efficiently. The Universe Collection was created to illustrate this supernatural phenomenon. Build your own universe now, expand your setup with this Saturn, and slowly expand to a complete system!

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

These nests are equipped with a foam section, 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 tunnels. So, the foam must 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. First, you connect another enclosure or nest tube for the ants to move into, and then the acrylic nest can be easily unscrewed and rinsed with water.

The nest is easy to expand through the 10mm opening on the outside. Other enclosures can be connected with tubes.
