🚀 2-IN-1 CONVERTIBLE SYSTEM – CARPENTER ANT DUPLEX (GEN 2)
Experience ultimate flexibility in your ant keeping. This Gen 2 Duplex setup is engineered to grow with you: house two separate young colonies (up to 75 workers each) side-by-side, or use the included Combiner Connector to join both units into one massive 150+ worker habitat.

✨ GEN 2 ADVANCED ENGINEERING:
• Convertible Configuration: Use as two independent nests or one large combined system. The specialized Duplex Combiner Connector allows for seamless internal expansion.
• Rot-Proof PETG Construction: Unlike standard PLA, our high-grade PETG resists warping, mold, and degradation in high-humidity environments.
• High-Efficiency Hydration: Includes a Medium Hydration Base and High-Absorbency Hydration Media. The side-mounted design keeps the nest sanitary and the humidity stable.
• Easy-Open Maintenance: Our signature "Coin-Op" window ring system allows you to pop either nest open for cleaning in seconds using just a coin.
• Ironed Precision Surfaces: Industrially ironed top surfaces ensure a 100% flush window fit, eliminating microscopic gaps and preventing escapes.

• 2x Gen 2 Nests (Choice of Standard or Brood)
