Vattenrör
Ett vattenrör som passar alla Nest-moduler köpta efter 1:a januari 2025. Fyll enkelt på med vatten, och skruva dit korken. När röret vänds uppochned skapas en ytspänning som gör att vattnet inte rinner ut förrän det får kontakt med svampen i ditt Nest.
Fyll på med rent och kallt vatten när det börjar ta slut. Hantera delarna med rena händer eller verktyg för att undvika bakterietillväxt.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which Nest should I choose?
Choosing the right Nest depends on the size of your ant colony. The Small Nest is ideal for starter colonies with 1-30 ants, depending on the species. The Medium Nest is better suited for colonies that need more space, typically ranging from 30-150 ants. The Large Nest is designed for larger colonies with 150+ workers. Keep in mind that different ant species have varying space requirements due to their size. As your colony grows, you can easily expand their habitat by adding another Nest module.
Do you sell ants?
No, we do not sell ants. However, there are many reputable ant stores where you can purchase ants, or you can try to find ants in nature if it is permissible in your area. Always make sure to follow local laws and regulations, and treat all natural habitats and insects with respect.
Where do you ship your formicaria, and what are the shipping times?
We ship our formicaria internationally. Shipping times vary depending on your location. For orders within Sweden, delivery usually takes 1-3 days. For other European countries and the US, please allow a few extra days for delivery. We strive to pick and pack orders as quickly as possible to ensure timely shipping.
Do I need anything else besides the Nest?
Yes, in addition to the Nest, you will need an outworld where the ants can forage. We also recommend a liquid feeder, particularly for providing sugar water, which is essential for the health of your ant colony.
What ant species does this formicarium work for?
The Nest Formicarium is suitable for almost all ant species commonly kept by ant enthusiasts. The only exceptions are certain exotic species, such as weaver ants, which require a very high level of humidity that this formicarium may not be able to provide.
Can I return my products?
Yes, you can return your products. For more details, please refer to our returns policy.
Are the products suitable for kids?
Yes, our products are suitable for kids, but adult supervision is always recommended. Please be aware that the Nest Formicarium contains small parts that could pose a choking hazard to young children.
There is nothing as beautiful as Nest on the market today. All sizes are delicately designed to resemble natural ant nests. Our vision is for you to take these and then create your amazing miniature world from it, by combining the sizes to your liking together with our Outworld.
Nest is a design project years in the making, and we can finally say that thousands of ants have found their home here.
Nest and a majority of our other products are designed and produced in Stockholm, Sweden. We are happy to see the products spread across the globe. Maybe you have a colony living in them you want to share with our community?
We've gathered the measurements of all Nest sizes here for you. When buying a Nest you do not have to buy any extra Antgates, unless you have very specific connection needs. For normal usage, they are all included. The same goes for the sponges.
Nest Small dimensions:
Length: 6,4cm / 2.5"
Width: 3,4cm / 1.33"
Height: 1,8cm / 0.7"
Nest Medium dimensions:
Length: 6,4cm / 2.5"
Width: 6,4cm / 2.5"
Height: 1,8cm / 0.7"
Nest Large dimensions:
Length: 10,5cm / 4.13"
Width: 10,4cm / 4.1"
Height: 1,8cm / 0.7"
All three sizes of Nest work seamlessly together. They form a perfect shell-like shape when they are all assembled, but they can be arranged however you like. You can build your own version and create something unique.
Nest formicaria are built to be connected directly to our Outworld. But you can also connect to other brand's outworlds with vinyl tubing. Just attach the tubing to our "Antgate Tube" product and then connect the pieces.
I have to start out by stating I love everything this company produces and I've literally bought everything they make and find the quality to be top notch. That being said, I'm disappointed that after a few months I've come home to find two of these water tube attachments broken and my ant nests flooded. I've been careful not to tighten them too much and they were in place for a few days before they just suddenly snapped and all the water poured into two of my nests. I hope they fix this as I need to get replacements now.
A good solution for moisture, but the corks are fragile and break. I glued one, the other broke more.
Hello Jānis,
I'm sorry about this issue. Let me send you a batch of new corks. We are currently working on a new Water vial product with new glass and new corks. Until then, please use the ones I will send you, and after that I can send you the updated version as well. Please screw them on very gently to prevent them from breaking. /Linus
Great quality and fast delivery
Perfect
Mycket bra passform! Nya glasen till vattnet verkar vara lite större än de vi köpte tidigare, vilket är ett plus!

The water tube attachment is a great addition to my setup.
It fits perfectly, is easy to install, and provides a reliable water source for the colony.
The build quality is excellent and it integrates seamlessly with the rest of the system.
Everything arrived well packaged and exactly as described.
A simple but very useful accessory that makes colony maintenance much easier. Highly recommended.
Bardzo dobrze wymyślony, zaprojektowany dodatek do gniazda. Polecam :D
Fill it, click it in place and never have to guess if your ants have water or not. You can see how the water level goes down as they drink 🥹
Good and easy to install to the ant nest.
Cannot express how great this system is. Nice sized outworld. Lovely nests and the water feeder attachment is great. All round, a fantastic upgrade for my carpenter ants. Probably the best looking formicarium I've been able to find.
Attached to the separate hydration hab or onto a nest formicarium this proves very useful in keeping moisture content up and keeping the ants hydrated.
Some care needs to be taken to avoid it flooding the nest however.
Den gör sitt jobb, töms ganska snabbt men funkar bra

Verry good products en good service!
Bra och fyller sitt syfte
When I saw that the Nest series was going to be updated with bigger sponges, I was elated, but these tube attachments make it even better! It makes my Nest modules have their own little "Nest Water hubs" that have reservoirs that last for a lot longer.
Does the water tube fit all nests? (The description says it can be connected with those bought before 2025. Can I install it at the newly bought nests?) tysm!
Yes! It fits all Nests before and after 2025. /Linus
