Tetramorium in vertical formicarium

I've got a tetramorium colony who's been in an ac ant tower but they're not thriving. I've been super tempted to move them to another setup but not sure what the right one is. Would a vertical formicarium be any good? Since they're pavement ants they probably prefer flat horizontal nests like the ones they have under pavement.
Current colonies:

-Tetramorium immigrans (pavement ants)
-Formica subaenescens

I say horizontal.
Why don’t more people like ants?
Is anyone from Wyoming who wants to sell ants?

You can email me about ants at Tucker.reynolds13@gmail.com
