The file 'Mini Antfarm In Big Tic-Tac Box 3D Printer Model' is (stl) file type, size is 1.0MB.
Small ant farm (formicarium), which you can make from an old, big tic-tac box.
It has a watering system and small arena on top. It is vertical and double-sided, so after printing a solid base, you can just put it on your desk and observe your small ant colony.
Ants_vert_inside.stl need to be printed with supports, but if you want to print without them - just print ants_vert_front.stl and ants_vert_back.stl, and connect them by their back. You don't need to glue them - just put them together inside a tic-tac box.
Edit note: It is for 49g mint tictacs box.

Thanks to comments, I had the chance to correct files. There were a problem with main shape of nest in tic tac box.
Additionally, I added a little picnic basket feeder for your ants ;-)
