Description:
This plaster starter set, with prefabricated passages and chambers, is suitable for various ant species, especially for species that nest between or under stones and those that dig in the soil.
The “ANTCUBE – plaster nest” can be inserted into the fully transparent farm. Alternatively, you can also use the “Soil – sand-clay white” to fill the farm or to close off some of the chambers of the gypsum nest. Additional modules can be connected via the 50 mm holes in the cover if required, e.g. the separately available foggers, fans or lights. Alternatively, suitable grid inserts and formicarium plugs to close the openings are included in the scope of delivery. If desired, the formicarium can also be operated open by simply placing the removable frame on top and applying the ant escape protection oil to the edge. The “Drinking trough 2ml – 360 degrees” is intended for honey/sugar solution, the “Drinking trough clear 5ml – sponge” for water. The “Foil thermometer display” can be attached to the frame or the cover and displays the climate values.
Important: Please moisten the substrate before use so that the mixture can bind and develop a firm hold in the ant farm. In addition, if the substrate is too dry and dusty, the ants’ airways may be blocked and, in the worst case, the animals may suffocate.
Recommendation: We recommend a layer of substrate 2 mm high so that the animals cannot burrow into the arena and instead use the farm provided for this purpose.
Note: The nest should be used in a dry or slightly damp formicarium. If the nest is kept permanently damp, the material may become moldy.
Note on the farm
Please note the following when attaching or removing hoses:
If the tubing is very difficult to fit onto the connection socket, the socket should be lightly rubbed with a drop of our anti-burst oil or powder. The hose should then be pushed onto the socket using twisting or screwing movements without straining the socket with up and down movements. The same applies when removing the hoses from the farm connection socket. Please do not simply pull it off!
