Nest formicarium Ant Farm

The basis of your Ant Farm setup is the nest part. Here you will find the different options, sometimes directly including an arena area (such as the Gel options and Sand F-Farm). Order your ants and you are ready for a new hobby

An ant farm consists of at least two parts, the part that is normally underground (nest) and the part that is above the ground, the foraging area, or the area where the ants can get their food and dispose of waste. We call this the arena. In the beginning, the nest tube is still the safe place of a colony and you can see it as a nesting area. The larger the colony, the more space they need and from about 30 workers you can connect a larger nest section.

You will find all available nest options that we offer on this page! If you want quick action and see how a complete tunnel system is formed, choose a gel ant farm with a group of workers (ant family). If you have any doubts, please contact us for advice.
