You need Lasius workers/brood for this species, the more brood/workers you get the better this species is pretty hard to keep for newbies.Here is a care sheet for this species' European sister species. Their care is the same:https://www.formicul...sius-umbratus/

"If an ant carries an object a hundred times it's weight,you can carry burdens many times your size.
Oh ok thanks!
I have a few questions though. So I just collect workers? Can they be tetramorium or lasuis, or does it not really matter? Additionally, where can I find a care-sheet for this species? Is this too hard for a beginner or is it easy, as I would like to have a parasitic lasuis, I find them really cool!

Thanks! I’ll try my luck with these, and I’ll be posting some threads with questions.
