I'm just 13 and I don't have much money. And when I get a queen, I might need an ant farm (well obviously).

i eat cars for breakfast everynight

I made this type of nest for under $15 USD. My ants love it! I don't know if your species needs any special requirements that this nest wouldn't provide, but you could certainly modify it.

Leo is right, though. Most ants can live in a test tube set up for a long time.
