Ant's Kingdom Galaxy (Universe Collection)

The intelligence of ants is from another planet, extraterrestrial! We only understand a little bit about how ants are able to work together so efficiently. The Universe Collection was created to illustrate this supernatural aspect. Build a complete universe for your ants, expand your setup with this ridiculously sized ant farm... the flagship of the series... the Galaxy! The first acrylic ant farm in the world with a length of one meter!

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. The foam must therefore remain moist so that the ants find a suitable 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 test 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 10 mm opening on the outside. Other enclosures can be connected using tubes.

Almost all ant colonies can be kept in this nest. Select a colony above for a promotional price.

Feeding set

The diet of a Lasius ant colony consists of a combination of sugar water, honeydew, and fruit flies, and for a Messor colony, seeds are added to that. A feeding set can be ordered above.
