Product description

Ytong Nest + Arena Set includes Glass tube + Pad + Red Cover plate

Description:
Ytong is a brand name, the material itself is called aerated concrete.
Due to the water retaining property, the material is well suited for ant keeping. It can be used to keep a large number of burrowing species, both from dry and wet habitats. Depending on the ant species, it is recommended to cover the bottom of the chambers with substrate. Some species feel more comfortable this way and for example Ponerinae ant species need soil for their larvae to pupate properly. Since this nest already includes an arena, it can be used as a complete formicarium setup.

Tip:
To prevent water from leaking out of the Ytong after moistening the nest area and collecting on the surface of the furniture below, or the rough material scratching the surfaces, we recommend using the included matching glass tub to go with our Ytong nest. It is waterproof and effectively protects underlying surfaces from water and scratch damage.

Usage:
For ant species of size M – L.
Aerated concrete is a very brittle and fragile material. Therefore, due to the manufacturing process, it is impossible to prevent corners and edges from showing slight breaks and unevenness. Because of this, Ytong nests are not suitable for very small ant species of size S, as these species could easily break out here.
