Bought this: Definitely recommended for smaller ant species! I love it. Outworlds are awesome as well, but you may have to drill one hole yourself if you want it to attach to other formicariums/ outworlds. Thanks ExponentMars!

My old formicarium sucks, so I started by connecting it to the outworld, which I will then connect to the newer formicarium (the old one got so dirty because I can't open it without ants escaping. Definitely needs to be replaced with an easier to clean alternative, such as this one).

I also made my own cover for it, so the ants can enjoy natural darkness.

They love the outworld so far! Here they are discovering some dragonfly I gave them.
