Test Tubed Queen

The queen that I caught stays on the dry side of the test tube most of the time, next to the cotton ball near the air. Is this supposed to happen? Thanks

Beach Sand Substrate?

I am new to ant keeping and I do not have any ant queens yet, but I've decided to make the setup beforehand. I collected some sand from the beach as well as rocks from the beach. My question is that will using beach sand a substrate be safe, since beach sand has some salt in it?
