Why Choose HexNest Hex?

• Designed for Ants, Built for You: The HexNest Hex is ideal for the majority of ant species. Whether you're caring for a small colony or a rapidly growing empire, the HexNest system gives your ants the best possible home to flourish.

• Modular & Expandable: As your colony grows, so can your setup. HexNest’s modular design allows for seamless expansion—connect additional Outworlds, third-party formicariums, or test tubes with ease. There’s no limit to how far you can grow your colony or how many modules you can add.

• Humidity Control Made Easy: The three hydration chambers and refill bottle make it simple to adjust the humidity levels inside the formicarium, ensuring your ants are always in the optimal environment. Keep your colony comfortable and healthy with minimal effort.

• Perfect for All Ant Keepers: Whether you’re new to ant-keeping or a seasoned expert, HexNest makes it easy to create and maintain a thriving colony. Space-efficient, expandable, and user-friendly, this formicarium was designed with convenience in mind.

Customizable Features to Suit Your Colony’s Needs

HexNest Hex comes with several customization options, allowing you to tailor the environment to your colony's specific needs:

• Substrate/No Substrate:

  • Substrate: A fine sand substrate provides a more natural surface for your queen and workers. It also helps distribute humidity, ensuring consistent moisture levels throughout the formicarium.
  • No Substrate: Choose the clean, minimalist option if you prefer an easy-to-maintain setup with no substrate.

• Red Cover: For species sensitive to light, the Red Cover provides a light-blocking environment. Ants cannot see red light, so the Red Cover helps create a dark, stress-free habitat, ideal for species that thrive in the dark.

• Vented/Non-Vented:

  • Vented Option: For species that prefer airflow, the vented version has small slits for ventilation, promoting proper air circulation.
  • Non-Vented Option: If you're keeping small species or those that prefer minimal airflow, the non-vented version is sealed and provides a stable, humidity-controlled environment.
