Please use a better tone and use actual grammar, read the rules if you need a refresher.

Youll have to move her. she's a semi claustral myrmicine, likely a crematogastine, maybe tetramorium.

Yes please do that

But tape a new test tube set-up, with a tiny bit untaped so air can get through. Cover the new one in darkness, and expose the other to light, make sure she moved all her eggs across. Then you can separate the tubing, and close the new one off with cotton. Then clean the old test tube.
My Ants:
(x1) Campontous semitstaceus ~20 workers, 1 Queen
(x1) Camponotus vicinus ~10 workers, 1 Queen (all black variety)
(x1) Tetramorium immigrans ~100 workers, 1 Queen
(x1) Myrmercocystus mexicanus -1 Queen
(x2) Mymercocystus mimcus -1 Queen
(x1) Mymercocystus testaceus ~45 workers, 1 Queen
