hey so I made a small cement formicarium for my camponotus ants. I will shift them into this formicarium once their founding testube run out of water or mold spreads more.

Chambers are small as ants like tight places. I think this should hold at least 15 or less ants. Chambers are 1 centimeter deep. should I make more deep nest or should I increase the size of chambers ??
Ants I have-
camponotus compressus colony- the shadow warriors.
Pls just let me have a tetramorium colony
