Description
Glass Ant Arena (Outworld) – 30 × 20 × 12 cm
The 30 × 20 × 12 cm glass ant arena is a practical outworld designed for feeding, observing the colony and expanding an existing formicarium setup. Its increased height provides plenty of usable space and supports good air circulation.
It works well both for keeping ants at home and as part of a larger setup connected to a nest or formicarium.
Dimensions
- Length: 30 cm
- Width: 20 cm
- Height: 12 cm
What is the glass ant arena used for?
The arena serves as the colony’s activity and foraging area. It can be used as:
- a space for serving food and water,
- an observation area for watching the ants’ natural behaviour,
- a customisable outworld with sand, gravel and decorations.
A separate arena makes it easier to keep the nest clean and gives the keeper greater flexibility when expanding the colony’s setup.
Construction and ventilation
- Two Ø 50 mm ventilation openings fitted with stainless-steel mesh in the top cover provide good airflow.
- Two aluminium handles make the cover easier to lift.
- Two Ø 10 mm openings in the side walls allow the arena to be connected with tubing; both openings are supplied with plugs.
- The arena can be connected to a nest or another formicarium.
- The upper edges are finished with a silicone seal to improve enclosure security and reduce the risk of escapes.
Recommended optional accessories
- Ø 10 mm tubing – for connecting the arena to a nest or formicarium; not included.
- Arena rim – provides additional ventilation and allows an escape barrier such as Fluon to be applied.
- AntCenter connectors No. 1 – for a neat and stable connection between modules.
- Fluon – an effective escape-prevention barrier for ants.
What next?
Connect the arena to a nest or formicarium and adapt the setup as your colony grows. This spacious glass ant outworld can become the central feeding and observation area in your ant-keeping setup.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can the glass arena be used as an ant nest?
No. The arena is an outworld intended for feeding, providing water and observing the colony’s activity. It should be connected by tubing to a suitable ant nest or formicarium.
What are the benefits of the two large Ø 50 mm ventilation openings?
The two Ø 50 mm openings in the cover provide excellent airflow throughout the arena. Their stainless-steel mesh allows effective ventilation while helping to keep the ants securely inside.
Are plugs and tubing included?
Plugs for the two Ø 10 mm side openings are included. The tubing required to connect the arena to a nest or formicarium is sold separately.
How can I provide additional escape prevention?
An escape barrier such as Fluon can be applied to the upper section of the walls. The optional arena rim makes applying the barrier easier and provides additional ventilation when the arena is used without the full cover.
Can I add sand, gravel and decorations to the arena?
Yes. The bottom can be covered with a thin layer of sand or gravel and arranged with a few small decorations. The setup should not make cleaning, feeding or observing the ants more difficult.
