Description

HexNest Hex in Red. HexNest is a Patent Pending formicarium perfectly suitable for most ant species. HexNest has been designed with the greatest level of detail to every aspect we could think of, and consulted with may Influencers in the community. The result is a formicarium that can easily be a showpiece in your Ant Room.

The following options are available for HexNest Branch Formicariums:

Substrate/No Substrate - A fine sand substrate is applied to the bottom of the Foundry. This provides several advantages for your queen ant. First, it provides a more natural surface for your queen and her workers. Secondly it helps to distribute humidity within the Foundry.
Red Cover - Red cover provides a light blocker for species sensitive to light. Ants can not see Red Light, so with the Red Cover, a nice dark environment is provided for your colony.
Vented/Not Vented - Some species of ants prefer airflow within the nest. Some species prefer no airflow. With the Vented option, there are small slits cut into the acrylic and the blockers, however some very small species may be able to escape through these small gaps. The Unvented version does not have these openings and far more suitable for very small species.

HexNest is a next level modular design that eliminates, if not greatly reduces many problems Ant Keepers deal with. This design is Modular, Expandable, Space Efficient, and Easy to use!

HexNest comes with three hydration chambers and a refill bottle that the keeper can use to easily adjust the humidity levels within the Formicarium.

This design allows keepers to quickly and easily attach any Outworld, 3rd party Formicarium, Test Tube, and additional HexNest modules. There are no limitations on how far you can expand this. It will grow with the needs of your colony!
