Pseudomymex Care

I have recently acquired a colony of pseudomyrmex, there's about 6 workers and one Queen. I'm not able to find much information about them online, so I would appreciate it if anyone could let me know absolutely anything they know about them. All I know is that they have a good grip and prefer to nest in twigs/wood.

I would give them a test tube setup plugged with cotton and a little piece of airline tubing as the nest entrance. That should keep them happy. When in doubt, try Drosophila.

I actually moved them into a natural nest with a flower for nectar, because I found a hollow palm branch that's kind of like a test tube. I think they will like it, if not I kept their founding test tube in there.
