1. How long would an AC ant tower small last a tetramorium colony from a test tube?
2. Can C. Novaeboracensis fit into an AC mini nest?
Thank to anyone who has info :D

An ant tower small will last until they need more room, then you can add more nesting space.
No,it is not a good idea to put C. Novaeboracensis in an AC mini nest as they are too big for it, you should get a bigger nest.
You're welcome! :D

For question 1. It will probably last them 3-4 months.
And for question 2. it is just like Nico12 said.
Why keep ants that aren't found in your yard?
There are so many fascinating ants right where you live!
I disagree with the keeping/buying of ants that aren't in your area.
