Hey guys if you know any good sites to buy formicariums/supplies you can post them here for other members. But be aware of the risks shopping online. I am not affiliated with any of these sellers. Just giving you some ideas/options in buying or making your own besides Antscanada and Tarheel Ants. These might not be the best deals so do your own search. Prices are at time of posting.

 

$18

$15-$32 This one is a sliding lid, but not sure how big the air holes are. Not recommended for tiny ants.

$11 for 2. This is a neat idea to refill the water for ants.

$20-$58. You can pour grout/hydrostone on the bottom half for nesting. It has pre-drilled holes and a lid (with magnets? Can't tell).
