The nest has 9 mm chambers, six lockable nut-and-screw entrances, two humidification chambers and an internal latch, paired with a matching arena. The six entrances are the point of the kit: they let you tube on more nests, arenas and outworlds in any direction as the colony fills out, and lock the openings you are not using. The standard 10 mm ports fit every other ANTonTOP module, so the setup has no fixed ceiling. It is the same 3 mm layered acrylic used across the range, with proper humidification and screw-locked access rather than a clip-on lid. Two bags of quartz sand and a set of decorative stones build a textured floor, three decorations give cover, the feeder with jelly food keeps the workers fed, and the screwdriver opens and closes the locks, with nothing more to order once the ants are in.

Breeding Kit 3 is for the keeper scaling a colony up who already has the queen, raised from a test tube or caught locally, and wants a home that expands without being replaced. No queen yet? Pair it with a live colony from our species range, or take a complete kit with the colony, formicarium and food in one box. For an established keeper, a home that grows indefinitely through the 10 mm ports makes a gift that keeps earning its place.

Assemble the formicarium, moisten the two humidification chambers, connect the nest to the arena, and lay a thin bed of the included sand across the arena floor with a few decorations and stones. Introduce your queen or colony, keep the setup warm and quiet, and let them settle at their own pace. Feed the species you keep to its own diet using the feeder and jelly food, and extend the setup with more modular nests and arenas as the colony grows.

We ship year-round, packed to protect the acrylic and any substrate in transit. A tracking number goes out on dispatch day, and every part is checked before it leaves us; if anything arrives damaged, contact us and we will replace it.

Can I expand this setup later?
That is the whole idea. The 20×10 nest and arena connect to every other ANTonTOP module via standard 10 mm tubing, so the home grows with the colony.

What are the six entrances for?
They let you connect arenas, outworlds and further modules in any direction, and lock the ones you are not using. The screwdriver opens and closes the nut-and-screw locks.

Are ants included?
No. You get the nest, arena, sand, stones, feeder, jelly food and a screwdriver, but no colony. Add your own queen or buy one from our range.

I don’t have a queen yet — is that a problem?
No. Many keepers buy a breeding kit before flight season so the home is ready, or pair it with a live colony or a complete kit.
