About This Product
The ANTCUBE Starter Set for Pogonomyrmex or Harvester ants is meticulously crafted for enthusiasts of ant keeping, specifically designed for various species of the genus Pogonomyrmex. This comprehensive starter set provides everything you need to create a thriving environment for your ants, ensuring they have the best possible habitat to flourish.
Key Features
- Specialized Ant Farms: The set includes two farms, one dedicated to the storage of grains and ant bread, which must be kept dry to prevent germination or mold.
- Customizable Environment: The “Digfix plates” can be inserted into the transparent farms, or you can use the “Substrate – Desert” to fill the farms, allowing for a tailored habitat.
- Expandable Setup: Additional modules such as foggers, fans, or lights can be connected via the 50mm holes in the cover, enhancing the living conditions for your ants.
- Open Operation Option: The formicarium can be operated openly by placing the removable frame on top and applying ant escape protection oil to its rim.
- Climate Monitoring: The included “Mini thermo-hygrometer” can be attached to the frame or cover to display essential climate values.

Optimal Ant Habitat: The ANTCUBE Starter Set is designed to meet the specific needs of Pogonomyrmex ants, providing a secure and nurturing environment.
Ease of Use: With clear instructions and all necessary components included, this starter set is perfect for both beginners and experienced ant keepers.
Care Instructions
Before use, it is crucial to moisten the substrate to ensure it binds properly and provides a firm hold in the ant farm. A recommended soil layer of 2 mm height prevents the ants from burrowing into the arena, encouraging them to utilize the designated farm. Additionally, lightly pricking the nesting material can facilitate easier digging for the ants.
