Observation space 25x15cm bare Fourmiculture®

Description

Anti-escape hunting area.

More than an external hunting and feeding area, an Observation Space makes it possible to better discover the behavior of ants outside its anthill, thus offering a new dimension to their breeding without risk of escape.

Open to the outside, it connects to your Artificial Anthill using the pipe provided and recreates the natural environment encountered by ants on the surface. It allows them to collect their food and dispose of their waste more easily, with all the security provided by our innovations.

Contents of the product: Tray in bare Plexiglas (without clean plate or decoration) with its anti-escape frame guaranteed for life.

This concept makes it possible to:

– 100% prevent breakouts with our breakthrough technology.

– Preserve ants from other poorly applied anti-escape treatments.

– Promote the development of species that live a lot outdoors.

– Observe the behavior of hunting or collecting seeds.

– Investigate the use of trail pheromones.

– Greatly facilitate the feeding and cleaning of its colony.

– Raise a colony in a test tube placed inside the Space.

– See the ants circulate through a long pipe if installed in another room or on a shelf.

 

Its crystalline Plexiglas walls allow the most beautiful observations while a laser engraving authenticates our work. As for the non-stick frame, it guarantees a direct view of the ants, without ever allowing an unwanted escape from the tank.

 

Suggested presentation: Observation space + Optional artist decor connected to a Minora sold separately.

20cm hose and 2 caps offered with each Space.

Definitive non-stick treatment without oil or talc.

Zero escape.
Guaranteed for life. In order to guarantee that no ant will ever leave Space despite its opening to the outside, a definitive non-stick coating, probably the smoothest ever created in the industry, is carried out under the satin Plexiglas frame covering the 'Space. It is thus protected from dirt and moisture to last a lifetime. And for full access to the tray, the frame is completely removable.

Technology used by ant study laboratories.

Absolute security. Even on Pheidole pallidula.

This hard-wearing coating will never need to be replaced and is 100% effective on all species.
Even the smallest slide instantly. They are also preserved from common but sometimes risky techniques if misused such as oil or chemicals. It is therefore natural that we offer a lifetime warranty and will take charge of its renewal if the slightest problem occurs, even in the event of misuse by the user (only the port is the responsibility of the customer).
In France and Switzerland, ant study laboratories have been familiar with this ultra-slippery coating for decades because they cannot afford to let specimens escape.
This is also the case for the largest Insectarium in America: the Montreal Insectarium. But this total confidence is obtained at the cost of special materials that must be designed for this from the outset. This is the whole reason for the Observation Spaces, designed by Fourmiculture to accommodate this technology. Using a lid or a mesh becomes totally unnecessary and allows easy access to the tank without risking workers leaking when opening.

Optional:
A cover plate for a natural, easy-care floor. It is placed at the bottom of the Plexiglas tray, serving as a natural ground close to stone for easy explorations. Its light tint slightly colored with ocher allows a development of the workers for perfect observations.

Easy to maintain and freely interchangeable, the floor plate can be removed at will to be cleaned, turned over to be used on the side still intact or replaced by a new plate or an artist's decor.
As an option, a second floor plate can be added to your package to anticipate long-term maintenance and restore the perfection of new.
In order for your ants to set off in large numbers to conquer their new space and show sustained activity, it is possible to heat the decor to 27°C with a heating mat or a lamp (monitor the temperature carefully with a thermometer).
The Observation Space is therefore ideal for cleaning:
– Tray washable in water and easy to soak,
– Tray resistant to household alcohol,
– Floor plate easy to remove to be brushed or replaced,
– Frame anti-fingerprint satin white (do not touch the treated part).

Limitless possibilities.
Imagine your Observation Spaces full of life with many workers active in their exploration.
They need an original perspective. The Observation Spaces can be superimposed, connected to each other in the desired direction thanks to the original holes or made to measure, and arranged in your own way for a unique installation allowing infinite observations. It's up to you to be creative!

Testimonial:
“ Just to tell you that I have received my Observation Space and that I am very happy with it because to tell you the truth, with the pheidole noda, I was still a little scared but here are more than 15 days and no escape 😉 I'm very happy it's a great product. And I recommend it!
