Itsa: Ant Nest Starter Kit

Itsa: Ant Nest is what it says on the box! It's a simple nest using an innovative evaporative hydration system, with a capillary action system which pumps water up into the absorbent hydration tile above. This design features a modular all-in-one design with a 5cm x 10cm nest.

Currently, these nests are discounted as many of them are otherwise unsellable, with minor issues with paint jobs and magnet depth.
