Test Tube Outworld/Fomicarium
thingiverse
Added four 1mm diameter holes for feeding using a syringe needle so that no need to lift cover to feed liquid food. One 10mm diameter hole on the side for connection with other formicarium using 10mm tubes or for general access. Can be plugged with plastic plugs or cotton. Additional version with cover slot to cover feeding holes is available for small ants species. However, I have not tested the fit of the cover and might need some adjustment in the slicer scale to fit properly. Could also just use tape or paper or other stuff to seal the feeding holes. Update 11 February 2021: Added a version with less holes and a cover that slides in tight and firmly. Use files with TightCover in name. The cover can be printed as is or rotated 90 degrees for some extra friction (depends on printer tolerances). Additional Items: Acrylic 100x50x3mm or 100x50x2mm Piece of hose with outer diameter 14mm (To connect the test tube to the formicarium) And a test tube 16mm outer diameter/ 14mm inner diameter with an Ant Queen.
