The Medium Ytong Nest – Type B is a spacious formicarium designed for growing ant colonies that require more room while maintaining stable humidity. It provides excellent moisture regulation and a natural nesting environment suitable for a wide range of species.
Medium Ytong Nest - Type B
This nest features a cubed chamber design, creating structured nesting spaces that allow ants to cluster brood and organize efficiently. The porous Ytong material naturally regulates moisture, creating a stable and humid microclimate ideal for healthy colony development.
Moisture is added through the side-mounted hydration chimney, allowing controlled hydration without disturbing the colony. An escape-proof mesh is embedded into the frame, while a clear acrylic cover secured with screws provides visibility and protection. A red shield is included to reduce light exposure and support natural ant behavior.
This nest is designed to be used only in a horizontal, flat position.
Dimensions: 127 x 111 x 33 mm (H x W x D)
