Ant Docking Station
Why a docking station for every nascent colony?
This is where the ant hobby begins. The ultimate start for any colony smaller than 50 workers. The small colony in a test tube needs shelter, a quiet place. Many ant species can benefit from a nice warm temperature, and you want to be able to connect your test tube to an arena in a good and aesthetically pleasing way. Making a connection between the test tube and the arena is always the first step in the hobby. After this is done, the colony can collect food from the arena and dispose of their waste. There is only 1 product available worldwide that allows you to arrange all this in one go.
The Docking Station is a must for every nascent ant colony of up to about 50 workers!
Specifications and Use
What can you and your ants do with this product and how do you use it?
Custom-made
The test tube L (16mm diameter and 150mm long) fits precisely into the Docking Station.
Shelter for your ant colony
The lid closes precisely over the test tube for good shelter for your colony (for the moments you're not observing).
Ventilation in docking station
Ventilation openings are incorporated in the lid for healthy airflow around the test tube.
Heating for rapid and healthy development
Openings are made at the bottom where a heating cable can be placed in several ways without the risk of condensation. Various temperature increases can be achieved by placing a cable partially or completely. Explanations on how it works and what temperature increases you can achieve can be found in the included instructions.
Connection to the tunnels
From the Docking Station, the ants will manage the transport through the tunnels to arenas and new nests. The connector piece from the test tube to the tunnels fits precisely onto this Docking Station.
A feast for the eyes
The Docking Station looks sleek and professional. It makes all other currently available products for a test tube obsolete. No more acrylic or wooden holders. No more shelter from foils, pieces of cloth, cardboard, or sleeves. No more fumbling around, but professionally ready for the future of your colony in one go!
What you get
The product consists of two parts. The dock comes with a base part where the test tube fits and a lid that closes precisely over it. A few options can be ordered immediately here at attractive promotional prices!
1. A test tube with nesting provision (moisture reservoir) if you don't have a nesting tube yet, or want to replace it (see example in the photos)
2. A connector piece to connect the test tube to the tunnel tubing.
3. Half a meter of tunnel tubing to connect to the arenas and nests.
4. A heating cable to provide your ant colony with the ultimate temperature for rapid and healthy development, so they are quickly (or more quickly) ready for a new, additional nesting environment!
Fruit Cup for Ants & Insects – Tasty and safe energy source
Do you want to treat your ant colony, beetles, stick insects, or reptiles to a delicious and nutritious snack? These **Fruit Cups** have been one of the most appreciated treats among insect enthusiasts for years. The jelly is packed with natural sugars, carbohydrates, and essential vitamins that provide active workers with a significant boost of energy.
No drowning hazard & Clean to use
One of the biggest advantages of a Fruit Cup compared to liquid sugar water or honeydew is its firm, jelly-like structure. Ants can walk on the jelly and eat to their heart's content without getting stuck or drowning. This makes it the safest way to offer sugars, especially for young colonies or very small ant species. Furthermore, your outworld or arena will remain much cleaner, and the jelly dries out less quickly.
Available in 6 delicious flavors
Variety in diet keeps your colony curious and active! The Fruit Cups come in various fruity flavors. When ordering individually, you will receive a random mix of the flavors below:
- Strawberry
- Melon
- Banana
- Honey
- Orange
- Yogurt
Instructions for use:
Simply remove the plastic film from the top of the cup and place the Fruit Cup directly in the outworld or arena. For very small colonies, you can also easily cut a small piece from it with a knife or spatula and offer it in a feeding dish.

Protect Your Ant Farm with 100% Pure Distilled Water (330ml)
Humidifying an ant farm is essential for the survival of your colony, but tap water often contains limescale and minerals. Distilled Water 330ml has been specially selected for safe and clean humidification of plaster nests, acrylic nests, sand/loam farms, and outworlds.
Prevent Limescale and Clogs
Using ordinary tap water often leads to a white limescale buildup on the glass or in the nesting material over time. This not only obstructs the view of your ants but can also clog the fine channels of the humidification system. Distilled water is completely free of limescale and mineral salts, ensuring your nest wall and humidification system remain perfectly clean and clear.
Safe for Your Ant Colony
In addition to preventing limescale, pure distilled water provides a hygienic moisture source. It helps reduce the risk of unwanted mold and bacterial growth in the humidification chambers. With the compact 330ml bottle, you have an ideal supply on hand that you can easily dispense with a pipette or syringe.
The Benefits at a Glance:
- 100% Pure: Free from limescale, minerals, chlorine, and other additives.
- No Limescale: Keeps the view of the nest and the glass crystal clear.
- Prevents Clogging: Maintains optimal functioning of sponges, plaster, and humidification reservoirs.
- Convenient Size: Compact 330ml packaging, easy to use for every ant keeper.
Give your ant colony the cleanest living environment and extend the lifespan of your ant farm with this pure distilled water!
