    3:18 Great video! btw the best method to make ants move out is simply water, attach the formicarium and place something that SLOWLY drips water, they will instinctively move out while it starts flooding, this is especially efficient for colonies that made their nest in soil like yours.

    I personally think that the best nests are made by hightechants because they not only have a humidity sensor which is not very common among ant nests but their build quality is second to none.

      @@zachutchinson1995 Unfortunately not, it's a UK based shop, but I think you can buy them still but shipping could cost a lot. You should definitely keep a look out for other retailers though because they are definitely amazing setups. Hope that helps!!

    The "best ant farm" to me really varies by species. For sone, such as my harvester ants, a sinple box full of dirt is a better enclosure than pre-made formicariums like this.

    • @lycon7000
      @lycon7000 Рік тому

      Yeah but can you still watch the colony then except for the ones on the outside? (sorry im verry new and dont know much yet)

    • @tobywebb2112
      @tobywebb2112 Рік тому +1

      I think he means display formicariums. These really are the best for non wood dwelling ants because you can have species tailored ones and customize the humidity yourself.
