The AntsCanada Ant Forum's

Fungus in my formicarium containing Technomyrmex albipes. The ants are nesting insode a dead branch.Is there any way to prevent the fungus from growing.I'd like to keep using the wood as I'm studying the foraging behaviour of the said ants

Can someone help me with the plant preference of [i]Oecophyllasmaragdina[/i]

Does that mean any kind of live plant will be enough for them to nest on?

Are trees necessary for the establishment of "Oecophylla smargdina" Colony.If not can someone mention other plants for them to nest.I have a tank setup of dimensions 3ft x 1ft x 2ft

I've a queen ant in a test tube setup and she's been laying eggs. Can you help me identify the the queen ant?
