Product Description
The Clay Concentrate 1000g is a pure natural product and perfectly suited as a substrate for ants. It can be used directly in an ant arena or mixed with sand and other natural materials to create a diggable substrate for ant farms and formicariums.
With the right mixture, a stable and natural ground is created, allowing ants to build their own tunnels and chambers. This makes the clay ideal for realistic nest construction, landscapes and layered substrates.
Sand, stones or other additives should first be mixed in dry and only then combined with water. The final strength of the material develops after adding water and complete drying.
Mixing Ratio Clay and Sand
The mixing ratio can be adjusted depending on the desired firmness:
- 1:1 to 1:2 = very hard substrate, ideal for solid surfaces or landscaping
- from 1:3 = diggable substrate, suitable for ants to build tunnels and chambers
- up to 1:20 = very loose substrate, for natural soil layers
