URGENT
Help! My colony flooded earlier today when I was filling their water. Luckily, I noticed it and immediately got some cotton swabs to clean it. They're Tetramorium and are in a Tar Heel Ants inception chamber. Will they be okay?

Re: URGENT
I realise that this was a long time ago, but how are they? I know that ants cannot drown. (even when submerged for weeks)
Proverbs 6:6-8
Go to the ant, you sluggard;
consider its ways and be wise!
It has no commander,
no overseer or ruler,
yet it stores its provisions in summer
and gathers its food at harvest.
