Product Information

Description

The Grow Module Complete Set was developed for growing ant colonies and combines modern design with high functionality. The handcrafted 3D-printed plaster nest features an integrated water reservoir with controlled moisture release through the base, ensuring even and stable humidification of the plaster nest.

The generous viewing area allows optimal observation of the ant colony, while the modular system allows flexible expansion via nest connectors. The Grow Module is ideal as an extension to existing setups or as a main nest for medium-sized colonies.

Thanks to the balanced moisture supply, the module is suitable for many different ant species.

Features

  • Nest area of 16 × 8 cm
  • Modular and expandable nest system
  • Individually lockable entrances and exits
  • Integrated water reservoir with approx. 15 ml capacity
  • Even humidification via integrated mesh system
  • Transparent acrylic glass cover for optimal viewing
  • Safety mechanism for correctly positioned sliders and closures
  • Easy maintenance and re-humidification
  • Suitable as an expansion module for numerous ant species
  • Modern, high-quality design
  • Made from PLA

Package Contents

  • 1 × Grow Module
  • 1 × blackout cover
  • 5 × connector cover
  • selected number of nest connectors
  • 1 × tube and test tube connector
  • 1 × Allen key for the screws

Note

  • The nest is made from PLA, plaster, and sand.
  • Do not expose the product to temperatures above 40 °C, as the material may deform.
  • Use only lukewarm water for cleaning.
  • Do not use aggressive cleaning agents or high temperatures.
  • Do not overfill the water reservoir, to ensure optimal function of the humidification system.

Nest Connector

The nest connector is used to securely and stably connect individual modules within the modular nest system. It allows flexible expansion and combination of different nest modules and ensures a tight, reliable transition between the individual elements.

Thanks to the integrated acrylic glass cover, the transition area remains visible at all times, while the sturdy construction ensures a secure connection between the modules.

The nest connector is compact and specially designed for the modular construction of the nest systems.

Connector Cover

The connector cover is used to neatly seal unused connection points within the modular ant nest system. It is used when no nest connector, tube connector, or test tube connector is attached to a module.

This reliably covers open connection openings, keeping the system closed and creating a uniform, tidy overall appearance. At the same time, the connection points are protected and visually finished off.

The connector cover is not strictly necessary and primarily serves to complete the visual appearance of the system.

Tube and Test Tube Connector

The tube and test tube connector is used to securely connect 16 mm outer-diameter tubing as well as 16 mm test tubes within the modular ant system. It allows a stable, tight coupling of different components and ensures a smooth transition between the nest, tubing system, and test tube setup.

Thanks to its precise fit, the connector ensures a firm hold and a reliable connection without additional tools.

Description

The Core Module is a compact, handcrafted 3D-printed plaster nest and forms the ideal foundation for small ant colonies or modular starter setups. Despite its space-saving size, the nest offers an excellent view of the colony and allows natural, easy observation of the ants.

The integrated 15 ml water reservoir ensures a controlled, even release of moisture into the plaster. Moisture is distributed evenly via a special mesh system in the base, so no additional moistening of the plaster is necessary. The system creates a stable nest climate with low maintenance effort.

To extend the lifespan of the nest and avoid limescale deposits on the surface, the water reservoir should not be overfilled.

Thanks to the modular design, the Core Module can be flexibly combined and expanded with other modules via nest connectors. In addition, the connections feature individually lockable entrances and exits, allowing individual areas of the system to be specifically controlled or separated.

The acrylic glass viewing pane provides a clear view into the nest, while the included blackout cover provides peace and quiet inside when needed.

The Core Module is ideal for founding colonies, smaller species, or as a space-saving extension within larger modular systems.
