Ant Farm for Kids Safety and Environment Gel Ant Colony Ecosystem Terrarium, Ant Habitat Science Learning Kit(with No Ant)…

My son loved this ant farm. I was able to order some ants for a few dollars online. The and farm weekend great and the ants started tunnelling after a few days.

It gets a little mold in it but doesn't seem to make an impact. It has been a great product.

Update: I posted a picture after having it operational for a little over a month. You can see all the condensation in there that is not able to be cleaned out without releasing the ants, as well as how little they've actually dug any tunnels. They all typically stay huddled in a corner. They piled up the gel where the water and sugar/food are supposed to go, so it's practically impossible to give them more. I feel like I'm slowly starving them to death. I am completely dissatisfied with this product, and I would change it to 1 star if my child wasn't at least still enjoying the ants.Original:We bought this for my 3rd child, as each of my kids has had one around K/1st grade. There are no instructions besides the diagram in the product photos. The sheet of paper that comes with the kit references the buyer back to the Amazon page to watch an instruction video, yet there's no real instruction video, just the product promo. It came with what I assume is a pack of food, but I don't see that even listed. The ants have a hard time climbing the tube. There is condensation building up in the gel area. The tiny sheet of paper that came with the kit said to add food and water, so maybe the extra moisture is causing that? Either way, I do not recommend this kit. If I could somehow transfer the ants to a different one, I would. Two stars only because my child is enjoying watching the ants.~~~~~~~~~ETA: the seller contacted me and said that the packet is actually seeds not food. That makes sense why 1) they weren't eating it and 2) the seeds are sprouting. But that was not clear to me from just looking at the pictures. An actual video like promised or better instructions would've taken care of much of my frustration.The seller also said that the condensation can be wiped, but as it's in the digging area, there is no way to wipe that without releasing the ants. I stand by my 2 star review.

I saw one of these on TikTok and thought my husband would love that. OMG its the coolest thing ever! We've already bought the expansion pack and my husband loves to keep up with his ants.

We got this thinking that it would be really cool. As soon as we got it the ants started digging tunnels. After they were finished with one, they never bothered to make more. This happened with the other one that we bought too.
