Hello Formiculture!

 

So yeah, I'm quite new, i have currently no colony but will soon get one, recently bought a nest and foraging area so I'm real excited.

 

I've been interested in insects and especially ants since I was very young and since I've finally  got a thumbs up from my fiancee I can finally get ants :)

 

Been lurking the forum quite a bit and been using the chat and so far I must say that I love this forum and I'm looking forward losing alot of hours of sleep on this forum.

 

Regards

Manno

I got a GroTubeXL byFormica, its not here yet (since I've just bought it yesterday :))

I will share all I can when I'm up and running but all i can do now is just to stare on pictures and videos on other peoples setups :)

Hey there.  Welcome to the forum!  I am new myself.  I also bought a GroTube XL a few days ago, although my queens aren't ready to move in quite yet.  Hope you enjoy this forum as much as I am.

So many, at the moment, I have around 4-5 nests of them on my yard, and two nests of myrmica rubra.
