The original AntWorks  ® Habitat Gel based ant colony kit.
Based upon some cool research by NASA.  The ants actually eat and drink off of the nutrient based gel.

• AntWorks is based on a 2003 NASA Space Shuttle experiment to study animal life in space and test how ants successfully tunnel in microgravity.
• The AntWorks Gel (Non Toxic) is complete with nutrients to promote healthy growth in the new colony.
• Watch ants live, work and tunnel in the nutritious and non-toxic gel as they create series upon series of intricate tunnels.
• The included LED illuminator acts as your Antworks base and when plugged in will shine four bright blue LEDs up through your torquoise gel. The ultimate nightlight is upon us! (120v).
• Easy to care for - Ants need NO food or water.
• Case is 6.5"x 5.5"x 1.25"

Each 'Antworks' Includes:

• Case and gel
• Magnifying glass
• Four blue LEDs embedded in base.
• Ant catching/tunnel starting tool
• Instruction booklet with interesting facts about ants.
• ANTS ARE NOT INCLUDED! However, there is a form included where you can order some ants for delivery via mail. But why bother? Just set out some potato chips in the kitchen and voila! Instant ant colony!
