I still plan to add insect-a-slip, as well as some steel mesh to the top that came with the critter keeper. This might be the first arts & crafts-y type thing I've done since grade school. :lol:
Plan to use this as an outworld for the Camponotus floridanus I've got. She currently has 4 pupae and I'm ready to see some nanitics!!

Thanks ahead of time for any critique or advice!

Looks pretty cool. How do you plan on attaching it to the nest?

Oh yeah! should have mentioned, I do plan on drilling out a hole and using some silicone caulk and tubing to attach the small Camponotus hybrid nest I bought today, when it arrives.

I figure I probably have a little bit of time before the ants need to be moved from the test tube set up, as it is.
