Full description
Terra M V2 Ant Nest: modular ant nest
The Terra M V2 Ant Nest is a modular ant nest designed to keep ant colonies stable, secure and easy to observe. Its compact size makes it a practical choice for colonies that need to expand their space gradually without jumping straight to a large ant nest.
Design and materials
The design is built to make colony observation easier, keeping the nest protected and providing a stable environment thanks to its water tower with anti-fungal plaster interior. It's also part of the modular Terra system, so it can be connected to other compatible modules and foraging areas to expand the space as the colony grows.
Its compact format also makes installation, maintenance and space management easier, making it a versatile choice both for myrmecology enthusiasts and for anyone looking for a practical, expandable ant nest.
How many ants fit?
As a guide, depending on species size:
- Small species (e.g. Lasius niger, Tetramorium caespitum): 350 to 500 workers
- Medium species (e.g. Messor barbarus): 150 to 200 workers
- Large species (e.g. Camponotus): 30 to 50 workers
These are guideline ranges: actual capacity also depends on humidity, available foraging space and each keeper's management.

Before you buy
Before choosing the Terra M V2 Ant Nest, consider your colony's current size, its humidity needs and the type of connections you'll be using. Choosing an ant nest that matches the colony's size and needs helps maintain suitable conditions and makes gradual expansion easier.

Frequently asked questions
Before you buy
Is it escape-proof?
Yes, all Terra modules feature precision-locking gates and airtight connections designed to prevent escapes.
Does it need maintenance?
Maintenance is minimal: periodically check the water tower level and clean the foraging area if you have one connected.
Is it compatible with other Terra modules?
Yes, all modules in the Terra system (Starter, M, L, XL) use the same modular connection system, so you can expand it whenever you need.
How does the humidity system work?
It features a water tower with an antifungal plaster interior that releases moisture gradually and in a controlled way, without flooding the nest.
What happens if my colony grows more than expected?
You can expand by connecting additional modules or moving up to a larger size in the Terra range; capacity figures are approximate.
Does it connect to my current modules?
The entire Terra range shares the same connection system, so any AntMaster anthill, foraging area, or connector fits together. The exact tube size is listed in the technical specs of each piece, further up this same page. If you're coming from another brand, check that measurement before ordering.
How is the nest hydrated?
The hydration system for each model is listed in the technical specs. On Terra models, the reservoir is built in and refilled from the outside, without opening the nest or disturbing the colony. The humidity gradient spreads through the galleries so the ants can choose the area they prefer.
Can I expand it as the colony grows?
Yes. That's the whole point of everything being modular: new modules are added with a tube, with no stressful moves or changing anthills. Starting with a Starter or a Starter Kit and expanding later is the usual path.
Do you make special sizes?
We manufacture everything ourselves, by hand, so yes: if you need a size, color, or configuration that isn't in the store, message us and we'll take a look. Tell us the species and colony size and we'll suggest a solution.
