Brief Q&A that may explain some options for this formicarium:
- What’s the difference with Museum glass?
Museum Glass gives a 95% glare reduction versus standard glass. It is also called “invisible glass” and is purely a cosmetic option for our viewing. It is money well spent if you plan on doing many videos and/or photos.
- What does add a second side mean…glass on back?
Second side: The second side of the Pioneer nest adds an additional side to the opposite “main” viewing side. This is the same size but of course a different design but similar to the main side. This side also comes with magnets and glass attached.
- Are they expandable…so if my colony is successful, can a second Pioneer be attached by tubing port(s)?
Expandable nest? YES! The Pioneer comes with a side port that is 1/2″ (13mm) diameter. You can attach tubing to this port and connect other habitats.
