Are Nanatics aggressive?
Now that I have several multi queen colonies nearing the nanatic stage i guess my question is will nanatics become aggressive? I know they tend to be on the shy side and avoid conflict and being they are very small do they even pose a threat to a queen? They are Tetramorium.

Most likely, no. If any thing is going to do harm to a queen, it would be another queen.

Re: Are Nanatics aggressive?
in some species several queens get together and form a large colony, they take care of the brood until nanatics arrive, then they brutally attack each other in a fight for supremacy until one comes on top and the others are dead in this process some times the queens "pursuade" the nanatics to help but mostly it's one on one.
