Depends on the species. Some ants form super colonies, and they will not fight. Examples include Argentine Ants and T. Sessile. Most of the time, however, they fight or flee.

Species I keep:

1 Lasius cf. Neoniger 30 workers

1 Camponotus sp. 15 workers

20 Tetramorium SpE 30 workers

1 T. Sessile 200 workers
