Description
NESTRIX DOUBLE It is the most spacious horizontal nest module in the basic range, designed for medium-sized colonies that need more space without complicating the setup. It occupies the equivalent of two standard-width modules, offering a generous area with a top-reservoir hydration system designed to create a natural moisture gradient.
Key features:
- Horizontal double size: 13 × 6.5 × 3 cm – twice the width of a standard module, perfect for providing extra space for the colony.
- 6 ml top-mounted moisture reservoir: Top-reservoir hydration system that maintains a moist area (ideal for breeding and egg storage) and a dry area. in the same nest. It creates a natural gradient that ants love.
- Indirect hydration: Ants can drink from the moistened area inside the nest (the plaster base retains moisture in an accessible way), although there is no direct access via a mesh screen.. It is recommended to add an external waterer or connect to a HYDRA module for constant access to potable water.
- Plaster and sand base: Ultra-natural setting.
- Secure and stable connection system: Includes exclusive 3D-printed parts:
- Connection and mounting parts for a rigid attachment to the rest of the setup. You can move the entire assembly without any issues.
- Closing/opening parts for sealing unused ports.
- Multiple connection ports (6): 100% compatible with ARENA MINI/MAXI, TOWER, and the rest of the NESTRIX modules.
Ideal for:
- Medium-sized, rapidly growing colonies.
- For those who want more horizontal space without complicating the humidity system.
- Setups that pair with HYDRA (for direct drinking) or DRYCORE (for drier areas).
- Natural progression from a Foundation Set or setups with simple modules.
With NESTRIX DOUBLE, you give your colony the space it needs to thrive, while maintaining simple humidity control and a clean, modular design. Double the space, double the growth!
The module that says: “A module? Nah, I want two… like ants itching to move house! ”
Pair it with a HYDRA for a direct water source or with ARENA MAXI for epic foraging. Level up your colony!
