Ant Farm Acrylic - Jupiter 25x40 (Universe Collection)

Ant's Kingdom Jupiter (Universe Collection)

The intelligence of ants is from another planet, extraterrestrial! We still understand only 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, complete your setup with this Jupiter, and you'll have a complete ant solar system!

The 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 humidify the nest, you can wet this foam (syringe included). It absorbs and distributes moisture without danger of flooding chambers and corridors. 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 complete Ant Farm is possible. First, you connect another enclosure or nest tube to which the ants move, and then the acrylic nest can be easily unscrewed and rinsed with water.

The nest can be easily expanded through the 10 mm opening on the outside. Other enclosures can be connected with tubes.
