Watch live ants as they create 3-D tunnels in the AntWorks transparent gel - it provides both food nutrients and H2O for the ants, so they need no care! The AntWorks gelatin habitat was created from a 2003 NASA experimentation to survey animal life in space.
You can catch about 15 ants to populate the colony yourself, or have them delivered for $3.00 with the included order form. Place them in the AntWorks, the lid...and watch - within days the ants will burrow out an impressive 3-D design of channels, each clearly visible in cross-section. Maintenance is minimal: Just open the top shortly each now and again to oxygenate the inside, and from time to time clean the top.

Worker ants conveniently transport those who have passed away to the top of the habitat for easy disposal.
