Small Fungus Chamber
A compact home for a growing fungus garden, made by MyrmexAnts. The black frame and matching top rim surround clear viewing panels, letting you watch your colony while keeping its garden supported above a moisture-retaining floor.
How the chamber works
- Raised fungus platform: The circular, perforated platform in the center supports the fungus garden above the surrounding hydration floor. It gives the garden a defined resting place and helps separate it from direct contact with the damp substrate below.
- Moisture-retaining floor: Choose a layered gypsum floor of sand and/or vermiculite with Hydrostone, or a bed of LECA expanded-clay balls. Both options provide a moisture-retaining base beneath and around the raised fungus platform. Hydrate gradually to suit your colony; avoid pooling water around the fungus.
- Two hydration ports: Dedicated access points let you replenish moisture in the base without repeatedly opening the main chamber.
- Two expansion ports: Connect compatible tubing to an outworld or an additional chamber as your setup grows. Confirm your tubing fit before ordering.
- Clear viewing panels: Observe the garden and workers from outside the chamber.
- Included hydration bottle: Use the supplied bottle for controlled additions of water through the hydration ports.
Choose your setup
