Description
BlackAnt – Modular Nest L (14 × 14 cm)
Expandable modular nest for medium and large ant colonies. The BlackAnt L is the black version of a modern modular ant nest measuring 14 × 14 cm, designed for ant keepers who value both aesthetics and functionality.
The matte black housing of the BlackAnt series reduces light exposure and creates stable, comfortable conditions for ant colonies, while giving the setup an elegant, modern appearance.
Manufactured using precise 3D printing technology, the nest combines durability, accuracy, and contemporary design. The ventilated transparent plexiglass cover ensures proper air circulation while providing excellent visibility of the nest interior.
Minimum recommended colony size: 50+ workers (medium and large ant species).
