    Attaching that tube to the wood was genius! Very cool.

    Great video, I find that floun works well if it double coated when in a humid environment

    • @TheAnttarium

      Double coated? Doesn’t that create an uneven surface?

    Wow they have been thriving! The outworld looks very nice and clean, lets hope the ants will keep it that way 😆. I personally think at least for Pogonomyrmex they cover their food with substrate because they don't want to get stuck in it while walking. Mine also seem to cover it so they can move the honey or sugar water into these little balls for easier access. 👍

      Thanks! I believe ants cover the carbohydrate sources for several reasons. I don’t think it’s just one behavior in particular.

    Nice set up!!!!
    What did you use to fix the lid holding the honey water dish on the branches?
    Is it the same product you use around the nest tubing?

    • @TheAnttarium
      @TheAnttarium  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks! We used sticky tack to hold the dish in place. We sometimes use it around tubes and nests when they don’t fit as snugly as we’d like.

    Do you ever sell neoponera queens? It’s quite difficult to find anyone selling them and I’m on the other side of Texas from their normal range :(

    • @TheAnttarium
      @TheAnttarium  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      The ones I do have are not for sale. However if I collect some this fall I may sell them. I had to drive all the way down there to get the ones I have now. You may want to get in touch with AntsEmporium about when they may have some in stock.
