Hi, I was just wondering if sand is suitable for my Lasus niger out world? The sand is approx 1 inch deep
Many thanks.

Re: Sand?
Dont know if its suitable for that species, could eb (probably is, ant are not that picky) but make sure the sand is bone dry, otherwise they will build a home there instead...... Actually, I would say yes, sand is suitable for them, put soe air plants in there as well just for some terrain. (I think sand is okey because the Lasius niger is a pavement ant and it builds nests in sand between blocks commonly, if I have gotten my species info right)

Re: Sand?
Thank you for your help and info, I will get some air plants and a small rock to place in the out world. Whenever I see ant nests in the pavement there is always sand at the entrance and I will make sure it's dry
I will place a water/cotton wool test tube in there for their water but it will be a while yet, just want to be ready and prepared.

Re: Sand?
Just to let you know, they will drag large amounts of sand into the hybrid... This will make it difficult to see them.
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.
