Overview
Ant Nest Module Excavator 120 x 33 x 35 mm Narrow Chamber with Transparent Wall Entry 10 mm Red Cover Grey For Formicaria

The Ant Nest Module Excavator is an oblong part of a modular formicarium measuring 120 x 33 x 35 mm. Inside, there is a narrow elongated chamber with substrate, which you can see entirely thanks to the transparent front wall. The ants move close to the wall, allowing you to observe them much more closely than in wider nests. According to the manufacturer, the module has medium humidity (level 1.5 on the manufacturer's rating), making it suitable for species that do not require overly moist environments. The transparent wall is attached to the grey frame with screws in the corners.

The module occupies half the width and one length of a standard part, thus measuring 0.5 x 1, and can easily be complemented alongside other modules. For connection to the assembly, there is 1 entry hole with a diameter of 10 mm, and the manufacturer recommends adding approximately 12 ml of water to the module. The chamber is covered by a long red transparent lid that dampens light and creates a calm twilight for the ants. The frame is grey, and the parts are joined together with screws included in the package during assembly.

Place the module on a stable flat surface away from direct sunlight and heat sources. Add water in the recommended amount and observe how the humidity in the chamber changes. If you are not currently using the entry, keep it closed to prevent the ants from escaping. Always replace the red lid after observation; the colony is calmer in the twilight. Clean the frame and transparent wall only with a soft dry cloth to avoid scratches. As the colony grows, connect additional nests or an arena to the module to provide the ants with enough space for foraging and waste disposal, keeping the nest clean.

Ant Nest Module Excavator will be appreciated by breeders who want to have a view of the nest as close to the colony as possible. The narrow chamber behind the transparent wall showcases the life of the ants as if it were in the palm of your hand, and the slender shape is also suitable for smaller assemblies. The size 0.5 x 1 allows you to fill any gaps between larger modules, making full use of the assembly space. Assembly is manageable with the 4 screws included in the package. You can combine it freely with other parts of the same range and gradually expand the assembly.
