You guys at AC should make a small formacarium as an alternative to a test tube, you could use it until there are 20-50 workers it could be a small nest and small outworld like a 4 chamber founding Omni nest with a little outworld on top. It's not that it's any better for rearing queens and foundin...

Although i agree it should keep the boxes and stay semi linear, I believe you should give it slight curves in the corners and entrances just to make it look nicer! Big fan of AntsCanada products!!! Our new version of Tetramorium nest will have sight curves and rounded edges rather than straight and...

Who else agrees with me that they want to see their ants dig tunnels in the natural AntsCanada habitat nest burrow, its a glorified uncle Milton setup and I would love to get it! Or if you had any leftover I'd be interested in buying so you don't have to start manufacturing it again, it's an amazing...
