Liquid Feeder Mini - 1 & 4 mL Combo, Set of 4 Feeders

I have a small colony living out of a test tube in a foraging area. Being new to ant keeping I wanted to make sure there was enough water and food available when I had to leave town for a week. I filled two of the larger capacity feeders (one with sugar water and the other with plain water) and left them in the foraging area. I came back after a week, the ants were fine and both feeders were at 1/2 capacity. I live in Southern California, and I think most of the loss was due to evaporation. I still keep at least one in the foraging area filled with water, and I see the ants feeding from it frequently.I think I should also mention that byFormica is a smaller company with excellent customer support. Terry actively develops these products with the community through fourms (formiculture.com). He answers questions, posts progress on new products, and sends prototypes to users in the forum for testing.Lastly, the base of this is 3-D printed, and I think it's the first 3-D printed product I've ever used which is pretty cool.

So I ordered the fluon, sunburst ant food, and the Galileo liquid feeders off Amazon. All the packages arrived perfect and very well packaged. I have never used any of Terry's products before this. I stripped off my old fluon and apply byformica fluon. I use a open top and it did a perfect job keeping the ants in. They absolutely couldn't cross it. Next I used the liquid feeders filled with sunburst ant food. The feeders are fantastic looking and really add a lot of class to my set ups. The ants quickly found and really loved the sunburst ant food. I will be buying All of these products in the future they are of the highest quality and frankly I was very impressed. So it gets a 10 out of 10 for me. I will be doing a complete review in my YouTube channel. Really great stuff Terry keep up the fantastic work promoting our hobby!!

The only thing about this product is you have to make sure your ants can fit their head into to feed, but that is only the buyer's problem if the ants can't drink out of it.The product itself is great for leaving liquids in with the ants, they can access it anytime they need some sugar in their systems. If your ants are only piling dirt on the edges of it, it is too close to their nest entrance and they want the "threat" of flooding is moved further away, OR, they just don't want any more for the time being.Long story short, definitely a good buy for easy care of your colonies.

A couple months in, so far so good, Ive fed monomorium, Camponotus Modoc, solenopsis, prenolepsis imparis and pogonomyrmex barbatus successfully. No drowning deathsI will say though that it has leaked multiple times WHILE UPSIDE DOWN OR SIDEWAYS, which I would expect but description says otherwise.Lastly. The tall bottle doesn't fit into a Tarheel Ants mini hearth formicarium with the lid onDoes its job tho

I use many of these, and other sizes, with great results. Evaporation is very low, fits in medium outworlds such as Ants Canada's Omni Nests, and holds enough Ant Nectar/Honey Water/Fresh Water for about 10 days with my 1,000+ Crazy Ant colony. Check out the different sizes since they vary in size and usability. I now own and use around 20 Feeders between the four sizes. Also check out the multi-sized pack to test the different sizes, I have to use all four sizes for my different outworlds. Again, awesome product!

Love these! I was concerned when I saw the size that it would be too small for Camponotus Pennsylvanicus. From the picture, you can see I was wrong! The workers are able to get into the feeder and feed easily.I was looking for a cleaner way to keep liquids for them and this is working great so far. Definitely recommend these and I will be looking to use them for my Solenopsis Molesta and Lasius Neoniger colonies when I can.

Unfortunately I haven’t had the opportunity to test out the product yet, so this is a preliminary review.The feeders came in the mail promptly with zero hassle. Upon inspection of the product, everything was shipped in a custom made box with custom inserts for the vials and stands.Each vial was well made, and seemed sturdy. The stands were all crafted quite nicely for being what I assume to be 3D printed. Definitely excited to put these in my enclosures.

rather have bought the stl and printed myself. these leak bad, and they really should resin print these to make them water tight.
