Glass lid of the formicarium
The cover of the formicarium is put on the lower part of the formicarium and has a blinded ventilation hole.
There is a silicone gasket between the lid and the lower part of the formicarium.
Thanks to this construction, the tightness of the formicarium is ensured.
Horizontal nest for ants
Due to the fact that the nest is horizontal, it is possible to observe the ants from above position. The arena, on the other hand, is large enough that it is easy to relocate the ants from the test tube by simply placing the test tube on the arena. A horizontal nest will also work well in raising large species like for example Camponotus ants.
Plugged hole for the resettlement of ants
On the side of the formicarium there is a blind hole of 10 mm, thanks to which, in the event of an enlargement of the colony, it is easy to resettle the ants to another formicarium.
This formicarium is ideal for keeping most ants.
It has transparent walls so you can observe the life of the colony from all sides. The design has been thought out so that the owner can easily keep the formicarium clean, it also provides a microclimate close to natural. By using a nest made of cork, ants can drill many corridors and chambers. The materials used to make the formicarium are harmless to ants and the environment. It's a nice gift for someone thirsty for the company of animals.
Functionality of the Compact II formicarium:
1) The formicarium is mainly made of glass, with careful use it is long-lived, it is enough to wash it if necessary. The cork, which wears out during the breeding of the ants (which is a natural process), is easy to replace.
The transparent walls of the formicarium allow you to easily observe the life of ants.
2) The use of a silicone gasket in the upper part of the arena causes the lid to adhere tightly to the rest of the formicarium, which ensures tightness of the formicarium (ants will not escape during farming)
3) Ventilation plug in the top cover provides air supply to the formicarium.
4) The side hole in the formicarium allows for its expansion with further modules.
5) The formicarium is suitable for raising many species of ants, so it is universal.
