3D model description

This small nest is perfect for starting a colony and will be perfect for a small species coming out of its test tube.

I kept the glass format in 15x10 (economy photo frame). It is easy to humidify because everything is integrated, there is no need to add a tank or stone mushroom.

Eventually, it is possible to add cotton in the tank, but it is not a requirement.

This nest has two side holes to allow, with the help of 9mm tube, to connect a test tube, another nest, or a hunting area...

3D printing doesn't necessarily give watertight tanks, it depends on the plastic used but especially on the printing parameters. I therefore advise you to put a layer of varnish for example on the whole surface of the tank walls to ensure this tightness.

For those who don't have a printing plate larger than 20x20, I will soon release a version of this nest that will be wider and shorter.

3D printing settings

The most complicated part to print is the grid because there is a multitude of 0.8mm holes. This part is important because it prevents ants from getting into the tank. It is thus necessary to take care of its printing
