Or photos of all your products excluding the test tubes and tubing if you don’t deem it necessary. But you should definitely add photos of the nests and outworld in the future.

I might consider an outworld from you if i can't find the materials to make one on my own.


Can i get some pics of the nests aswell? Looking for an alternative for a mini-hearth

I just finished having a conversation with Ant_Dude and I couldn't speak more highly of the experience! He offered me a package of a dual formicarium and two out worlds for what 1 and a half Minihearths would be, and they hold 100 workers for my ant colonies each! He also answered all my questions, and was very polite, while answering said questions! I would rate my experience 20 out of 5 stars, and would highly recommend him for any fellow ant keepers looking to buy formicaria or outworlds! Amazing all around! Thanks Ant_Dude! :)

Are the outworlds clear? Or are they slightly opaque?

Hi there! I went on a 6 month or so hiatus, in part due, and in part cause of the death of my colonies. 

However, I went back to the Sierras, and restarted my collection, which is now as follows:

Aphaenogaster uinta, Camponotus vicinus, Camponotus modoc, Formica cf. aserva, Formica cf. micropthalma, Formica cf. manni, Formica subpolita, Formica cf. subaenescens, Lasius americanus, Manica invidia, Pogonomyrmex salinus, Pogonomyrmex sp. 1, Solenopsis validiuscula, & Solenopsis sp. 3 (new Sierra variant).

Production of the fungus grower nests is behind schedule, due to some complications with substrate.
