An all-in-one solution for the well-being of your ants. With this module, you will be able to:
- Develop a young colony to approximately 300-500 individuals (large species) or 600-1000 individuals (small species),
- Connecting several modules together with a bridge or pipe to continue development

- To ensure the survival of your ants against dehydration,
- To prevent any escape,
- Prepare for the move to a larger anthill or biotope under excellent conditions.

Young and intermediate colonies of Messor, tropical ants (Harpegnatos, Carebara, Diacamma, Odontomachus, etc.) and European ants (Lasius, Pheidole, Camponotus, etc.). Suitable for species up to 16mm long.
Technical specifications:
- Island Concept: Place the module in a large container with water for several weeks.
- The moisture is absorbed by capillary action, the sand becomes moist and does not collapse.
- All in one: the top is a hunting area.
- Escapes are prevented by the lid with anti-mite grid.
- 100% natural with a material specially developed by Fourmiculture for the benefit of ants.
- Similar to natural porous stone, it provides a healthy surface and limits bacteria.
- Each piece is completely unique, handcrafted, and different from the others.
- 1 x 9mm connecting hole.
- Dimensions: acrylic cylinder 12cm in diameter and 10cm high + concrete base approximately 3cm high.
Instructions for use:
- Choose a watertight plastic container or aquarium filled with approximately 3cm of water.
- Feel free to get creative and make a beautiful aqua-terrarium 🙂
- Replace the water regularly.
- Apply additional anti-escape coating to the top of the cylinder walls on the inside if you want ultimate protection when opening the lid (our recommendation: Fluon).
- Place your nest in a warm spot or use a heat lamp for optimal conditions (usually 27°C).
- Connect several modules together if you want to take advantage of this concept on a larger scale and develop your colony for a long time.
