I think this will help you:https://ielc.libguides.com/sdzg/factsheets/honeypot-ant
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.

I’m pretty sure they will eat ant sunburst nectar or honey. I think for proteins they will eat small things like flies or small bug pieces
