"Mini Hearth, Modular" Write-Up

The Mini Hearth, Modular is a new product from Tar Heel Ants.  The Mini Hearth is a founding formicarium intended for queens and small colonies.  The Mini Hearth is our smallest formicarium that includes our large water tower and nestmate combination.  This makes this an ideal habitat for founding queens as it requires less maintenance and allows the queens to be left relatively undisturbed during their most delicate stage of colony development.

This version of our Mini Hearth formicarium has many of the original features in addition to some new ones.  

Features:

• Dimensions: Standard Nest Size - 3 5/8" x 1 13/16 x 1 3/4"
