I am confused about which flowhive supers I should order and would like some guidance. I have built flowhive classic hives, but I have had to buy new brood boxes because the nuc frames from my breeder will be 30cm deep (6cm too deep). Now I have 10 frame brood boxes that are 50cmx43 cm. I know I need a 7 frame flowhive super. But which flowhive super will fit a brood box of this shape? Many thanks ---

Je croix que vous avez besoin de l’avis de Honeyflow… 😉 Hey @Bianca and @Freebee2, it sounds like our probably European/Swiss friend is working with Dadant size boxes. I might be wrong about that, but as you are the company professionals, do you have any answers to this question? Thank you!! ---

Langstroth Super should fit. Size of current frames wont mater as the super is plastic Flow frames. ---

@SuisseAbeille I am not 100% sure what you’re using. They sound a touch smaller than Dadant and marginally wider than 10 frame Langstroths. I suspect they are 10 frame Langstroths, they do vary slightly. Importantly, it sounds as though they’ll be close enough for a 7 frame Flow Super (which is equivalent to a 10 frame Langstroth) to be used with. There would be a slight over/under hang but should be close enough to sit one atop the other from a functionality point of view. Either the Classic or Flow Hive 2 will work, and neither will be a completely perfect fit. You may need to nail a narrow piece of timber or similar minor modification - nothing serious but wanted to give you fair warning! @Dawn_SD thanks for tagging me and @HappyHibee thanks for responding Also - please see this page for more info on our box dimensions if you wish [Flow Hive & Flow Frame weights and dimensions](https://support.honeyflow.com/flow-hive-flow-frame-weights-and-dimensions/) ---

Thanks @Freebee2 . That’s what i had figured. Nail on a couple of strips of wood to manage the over/under hang. The choice seems to be between Classic Araucaria 7 and Flow Hive 2 Araucaria 7. Thanks for you help. ---

> [@SuisseAbeille](#): > > Flow Hive 2 Araucaria 7 Though it seems that the Flow Hive 2 Araucaria 7 _super_ is not available without buying the whole hive. So it’ll be Classic Araucaria 7 super, or nothing ☹ ---

It’s almost the same. I’m ordering one for another Hive at work and another full 7 frame Araucaria Flow Hive 2 for the same project. 2.5 Flow Hives 🤣🤣
