— “[It’s] the only pink gel-based ant habitat available. The space-age NASA-developed gel also produces oxygen, providing a beneficial environment for the ants,” Greg Adams, head of marketing at Bio-Spheres told TDmonthly. He mentioned that Bio-Spheres is the only company that offers replacement gel.

This weird and wonderful block of acrylic is a deliciously strange piece of lighting, as it contains a disembodied phosphorescent light bulb that seems to float within its transparent surroundings.
As darkness falls, the bulb begins to glow a ghostly shade of green, gently bathing its surroundings in ethereal emerald light.

Stranger still, the Glow Brick seems to be powered by phantom forces, as there's no power cord, battery box or on/off switch. But don't go jumping under the bed in distress - this ingenious piece of mood lighting is actually solar powered. It spends the day soaking up natural light in order to gently glow by night.

By day, the Glow Brick serves as an eye-catching tabletop ornament, but by night it it is transformed into a new creature. Its wraith like, supernatural shimmer is unlike any light you've ever encountered, and its retro/modern styling is reminiscent of Fritz Lang's Metropolis or a 30s horror movie. We half expected someone to shout 'Igor, throw the switch!' when we dimmed the lights here at Castle. Especially when some joker shouted 'Yesth Maathster'.

Simply Innovative. Antquarium, a GLOBUS educational product, allows people of all ages to study the behavior of the ants and the social interaction these fascination creatures display. Its gel is purposely formulated to nourish the ants. Thanks to the transparency of the gel, the architecture of the tunnels can be observed in 3 dimensions compared to the one perspective view of the old types of ant observation toys filled with sand or dirt. SuperAntquariums are great gifts for all.

This beautiful super antquarium has a slightly rounded shape and contains the special transparent media where ants build their habitat creating new and unpredictable paths and tunnels.

It is constituted from a nourishing, non-toxic, gel. 4 small holes are necessary in order to begin the construction of the tunnel net. Get your own ants via the packaging from BioSpheres for a proper colony. Adding the ants is easy. Open the top and put them within the Antquarium and start watching. You will be amazed as within a few days the ants will dig a spectacular system of tunnels and channels. Maintenance is minimal. Beyond supplying an ecological habitat in perfect equilibrium , the gel also provides nutriments to the ants. To replenish the air inside the unit, open the cover at least once a month.

No Feeding or Watering Necessary. Just add the ants.
