Description
This professional ant-keeping set offers everything you need to start your ant-keeping journey with confidence. Ideal for both beginners and experienced enthusiasts.
The hand-crafted gypsum ant farm is the core of this setup. It features a unique central hydration reservoir, allowing easy moisture control using the included syringe.
The inner chambers (4 mm deep) provide excellent visibility of the colony, while the deeper outer chambers (7 mm) are perfect for storing seeds and food. All chambers are connected, letting you observe how ants naturally organise their nest.
Both sides of the nest include 10 mm ports to connect the test-tube habitat, arena or additional accessories.
Part of our premium “Master Series”, this ant farm is built on years of experience in breeding and keeping ant colonies. As each nest is handmade, colours may vary slightly.

Goeie set voor beginners
Set die helemaal compleet is om mee te beginnen! Erg snelle verzending en ook fijn dat je meteen wat voer voor je Messors mee kunt bestellen! :-)
Goed, mooi product en snelle levering
Heel leuke set en mooi afgewerk.
Heel gemakkelijk in gebruik te nemen.
Er was enkel een probleem om mijn proefbuis aan te sluiten. Koppeling was niet juist denk ik.
Voor de rest perfect.
De set is zeer volledig en bevat alles wat je nodig hebt. Mooie producten en snelle service. Top!
Zo’n mooi verblijf voor mijn Messor Barbarus mieren! Heel blij mee
De set is helemaal compleet. Ik heb eerst de reageerbuis op de arena aangesloten. Het nest sluit ik pas aan bij een grotere kolonie (Wellicht vanaf 50 werksters of nog later). De eerste dagen zijn de mieren druk bezig om te verkennen, wat zaden te verzamelen en afval te ruimen. Nu wordt het rustiger en is er weinig activiteit. Geduld is het toverwoord.
Hele fijne set, vlotjes geleverd met de nodige expertise.
Bedankt!!
Hele leuke set voor mijn zoontje (7 jaar). Zit goed in elkaar en alles zit er bij.
Super leuk cadeautje voor de verjaardag van mijn zoontje. Hij is 7 geworden en wilde heel graag een aquarium, totdat hij er achter kwam dat mieren ook een optie waren. Mooie set, met de inrichtingsset erbij ben je meteen helemaal klaar. Duidelijke instructies en erg leuk om naar te kijken.
