Planning on purchasing a colony, wondering if there are any special foods to feed them them and whether or not they tend aphids.

They seem to like flies / flying insects according to the german Antstore.

However you can also offer them mealworms that are cut in half. They may still consume them even if they are less than 1 cm big.
Also Honey or Honey water is a good idea.
Doing some proper research is the best way to start an antcolony.
