Not sure if this can be found elsewhere but where do you all get your test tubes? Anyone know any good deals online or at stores?

I get mine from amazon, so the quality and dimensions between each batch vary.

The AntsCanada test tubes are great, and so are the Amazon ones. But the AC ones are a little bit bigger, and more expensive. You do get more test tubes for less money on Amazon.

These are what i use. https://www.amazon.c...87679046&sr=8-4
I find them the right dimensions for most ants, and they are the cheapest i can find.
Go to the ant, you sluggard; consider its ways and be wise! It has no commander, no overseer or ruler, yet it stores its provisions in summer and gathers its food at harvest. -Proverbs 6: 6-8

Thankyou to all who have suggested so far. May get some plastic ones but mostly looking for cheap glass.

I get mine from Flinn Scientific. Good quality disposable glass tubes that fit the Tar Heel Ants Genesis inserts.
They ship pretty quickly, some always arrive broken but are still a great value.
