Hier findest du alle wichtigen Informationen zum MagLab Formicarium. Von der Grundkonfiguration über die erforderlichen 3D-gedruckten Teile, bis hin zur Platzierung der Magnete. Darüber hinaus werden typische Fragen beantwortet und praktische Tipps zur Einrichtung, Verwendung und der Erweiterung gegeben.

Diese Dokumentation soll dir helfen, das System schnell zu verstehen und dein eigenes MagLab Formicarium optimal einzurichten.

==== Die Dokumentation befindet sich derzeit im Aufbau und wird hier Schritt für Schritt veröffentlicht. ====

====== Basiselemente ======

Das MagLab Formicarium verfügt über einige Basiselemente, die alle miteinander verbunden werden können. Dadurch lassen sich mit relativ wenigen Elementen unendlich viele Möglichkeiten zusammenstellen. Nachfolgend findest du alle Elemente aufgelistet.

|  | The nest is the central living space of the ant colony. This is where the queen lives and where the ants care for their brood, including eggs, larvae and pupae. \\ \\ Two nest types are available in this system. A freestanding nest and a modular nest that can be expanded with additional printed elements as the colony grows. \\ \\ The nest must be kept slightly moist. To achieve this, the rear chamber is filled with cotton wool which acts as a small water reservoir. A 2 mm hole on the opposite side allows you to moisten the cotton without opening the nest. |
|  | The arena is the area of the ant farm where the ants leave the nest and interact with their environment. This is where they search for food, explore their surroundings and transport resources back to the nest. \\ \\ Food and water are usually placed inside the arena so the ants can collect them and bring them to the colony. The arena also serves as a space where ants can move freely and display their natural behavior. \\ \\ In many cases ants will also deposit waste or food remains in the arena, which helps keep the nest clean. |
|  | The MagLab Hub is the central connection element of the system. It allows you to connect nests, arenas and other modules together. \\ \\ All elements can be attached to the hub, making it easy to expand or rearrange the setup at any time. This makes the system flexible and modular as the colony grows. \\ \\ The hub acts as the main junction that links all parts of the ant farm and keeps the entire system connected. |
|  | Stoppers are simple closing pieces used to seal unused openings in the system. They are placed on connectors where no module is attached. \\ \\ They can be used to close tunnels, connection ports or the small water opening on the back of the nest. This keeps the system sealed and prevents ants from escaping. \\ \\ In general, every open connection that is not currently in use should be closed with a stopper. |
