Starter Outworld

1 × Original Starter Outworld in the selected colour, featuring a 3D-printed PLA base with clear acrylic enclosure panels and the associated access-lid and assembly fittings.

Ants, a separate nest or test tube, food, feeders and accessories not specifically supplied with the product are excluded. Check the enclosed fitting set for your specific version before assembly.

This is the previous-generation compact Starter Outworld, with a solid 3D-printed PLA floor and clear acrylic panels. It is different from the redesigned Mini Outworld, which has an acrylic floor.

Use compatible Antastic Tom modular fittings. Confirm physical size and connector compatibility with your actual setup before ordering; an exact overall external measurement is not currently verified for this original model.

Select the colour shown as available at checkout. This is an original-design item offered while remaining stock lasts.

For keepers with a founding tube or developing colony who want a compact separate area for feeding, water access and waste removal.

The outworld is additional feeding space, not a substitute for suitable nesting accommodation. Its compact size is generally better suited to early colonies and smaller setups than large or highly active colonies.

• Identify the original-design PLA base, clear acrylic panels, access-lid pieces and supplied fasteners before starting assembly.
• Assemble the panels and lid using the matching fittings for this original-design model. Check every panel is properly seated and do not overtighten screws.
• Fit the modular connection to compatible nesting accommodation. Secure any unused openings and inspect the complete enclosure for escape gaps.
• Provide food and water in safe, removable receptacles, avoiding open liquid pools and decorations that can create an escape route.

Regular checks

Remove old food and waste promptly. Check all acrylic joints, lid parts, printed components, screws and modular fittings for wear, damage, distortion or gaps.

Cleaning

Only clean when unoccupied; wipe or rinse compatible PLA and acrylic parts using lukewarm water and a soft cloth or brush. Allow all parts to dry before reassembly. Avoid solvents, alcohol, boiling water, direct sunlight and excessive heat.

How does this differ from the Mini Outworld?

The Original Starter Outworld is the earlier compact model with a printed PLA floor. The Mini Outworld is a separate redesign with an acrylic floor and different framing.

Can I connect it to an Antastic Tom nest?

It uses compatible Antastic Tom modular fittings. Check that the exact connector and lid arrangement match the equipment you plan to connect.

Does it include an ant nest?

No. This is a compact foraging and feeding area. Provide suitable nesting accommodation separately.

Are other colours still available?

How should I clean it?
