What species should I keep?
It is almost spring in Australia and I’m considering my options. I think I.bickenilli could be good but I heard they are escape artists and can be hard to handle when mature. Then, I looked at r.Metallica (amazing shiny look). They have no ability to climb, but they can sting. Maybe gloves will fix the problems? The bad thing about keeping this ant is that the queen is (I think) semi-claustal. Anyways, I don’t know what species to keep. Thank you for your help

I recommend black crazy ants ever(paratrechina longicornis)because its very easy to keep and they don't sting nor bite if you work on them just remember black crazy ant queens are capable of double cloning so yeah catching 2 queens and someday you would realise that the queens have grown in numbers
