Antworks Illuminated Combo Pack

Antworks Illuminated.Get your very own space age creatures! Well not quite they39re just ants, but they certainly look like something from outer space in this new and futuristic habitat! When I was wee, having an ant farm was really cool, especially with the different layers of sand and soil and you could see them burying their way through it. Well forget that Antworks Illuminated makes that seem old and boring and it is really when you cop a load of this!Ok so the principal is the same it39s an enclosed habitat for those friendly and fascinating little ants, but it is so much more than that! Antworks is actually modelled after a NASA space shuttle experiment to study animal life in outer space and test how ants successfully tunnel in microgravity. WOW how cool is that and you can own it! It gives the ants a beautiful space age habitat and allows you to watch them at work. Weren39t we all mesmerised by ants when we were young how they tunnel through the soil and can carry 20 times their own body weight and now you can watch them all over again but in a much more interesting way. Instead of soil and sand, Antworks contains a non toxic gel that allows you to watch your ants create 3D tunnels. The gel is also full of nutrients so you won39t have to feed them! What39s even more fantastic is that it comes with an Antworks Illuminator that casts a blue glow upwards, catching all the intricate little tunnels left by your ants. The effect in a room is amazing it casts amazing shadows and effects around the room and you will feel like you39re in your very own space aged habitat! Antworks Illuminator is brilliant on so many levels it allows you to keep ants as pets with no need to feed them, it is fascinating not to mention educational for little lsquoun39s and big un39s alike and it also acts as a fantastic focal point in any room it39s like a living breathing sculpture that really will turn heads! Antworks makes a perfect gift for children they will love to watch the ants move through the tunnels, working as a team.
