Re: Tetraponera rufonigra care assistance required.
What would be normal behavior for a Tetraponera rufonigra dealate in a out world? Because mine rarely walks on the ground and mostly on the sides or the roof if she could. I have applied a DIY flueon barrier on the roof so I can have breathing holes for her, but now she keeps running around on the ...

I have never been stung by them but according to some who have been, their sting is 5x worse than a sting from Solenopsis geminata. Btw this video should hopefully help y...

Re: Dream Ant Colony

He had an older colony of Pheidole which lived on three pots of soil with plants (which he calls floating islands), one of them is a bonsai tree. It was quite some time ago when he first had that colony. Recentl...

Use bamboo tube, Tetraponera tend to do better in them. Also don't add too much water, Tetraponera require a dryer setup.

Re: Pheidole is so hard to keep!
I usually avoid Diacamma, but they are so common in my area that I end up stepping on them or their nest by accident and get stung. While we're on the topic of Diacamma, is there any way to spot a gamergate between the workers. And what will happen if you take a male ant from one colony, and take a...
