General Overview:
This 3D model is a modular formicarium expansion, measuring 10x10cm, compatible with existing setups. It features three access points and serves purposes such as separate feeding areas or isolation chambers.

Assembly Instructions:

  • The printed components are designed for easy assembly. Most parts can be tightly fitted together by gently tapping them with a hammer.
  • A small amount of superglue is required for assembly at one specific point.
  • Some parts of the design will need to be printed multiple times to complete the structure.

Materials and Additional Requirements:

  • The design requires additional 2mm-thick plexiglass, which must be manually cut into the following sizes:
    • 3 pieces of 87.5mm x 95mm
    • 2 pieces of 71mm x 71mm
    • 1 piece of 87.5mm x 66mm

Connector Specifications:

  • The connector holes have an inner diameter of 9mm and an outer diameter of 12mm.

Functionality:
The design includes three separate access points, offering flexible use as an addition to a formicarium system, such as for feeding or maintaining specific conditions.

Notes:

  • Drying Time: When applying glue, ensure that the fumes do not come into contact with the ants or their environment. Allow the glue to dry completely in a well-ventilated area before assembling the formicarium with other modules or introducing it to the colony.
  • Usage: This formicarium is designed exclusively as a modular expansion and should not be used as a standalone habitat for an ant colony.
