Gonzalo — Mon, 15 Dec 2025 23:45:33 +0000

The byFormica Micro Pro is the most advanced ant feeder on the market, designed specifically for ant keepers seeking a crystal-clear view, precise feeding, and maximum safety—even for the tiniest species.

This compact feeder combines a high-quality 1 ml glass vial with a redesigned, reinforced plastic base, offering superior performance in ant farms of any size.

Compact dimensions: Only 24 mm high and 18 mm in diameter. Perfect for tight spaces without sacrificing functionality.

Why is the Micro Pro different and superior?

Full, unobstructed viewThe geometry of the feeding ports has been optimized and redesigned from scratch to provide a virtually unobstructed line of sight. Watch your ants drink in full detail, without visual interference.
Maximum safety for small species: Precision micro-capillary channels regulate liquid flow, preventing ants from being excessively attracted or at risk of drowning.
Premium material: Solid, fiberglass-filled urethane base with an ultra-smooth, slightly “powdery” surface that promotes uniform nectar adhesion, ensuring consistent and even access.
Stability and perfect fit: The glass vial fits firmly and securely into the base, minimizing leaks, spills, or tipping in high-activity environments.
Quick and easy maintenance: Two-piece design that disassembles, cleans, and reassembles in seconds.

Dimensions: 24 mm height × 18 mm diameter
Materials: Laboratory glass vial + glass fiber-reinforced engineering resin base
Feed ports: Optimized for clear visibility and multidirectional access.
