Nice to see an AC Senate member here, could you help me with somthing? I posted an AC Question answer about 9 hours ago but it seems my comment is ghosted for some reason. There is no hidden video popping up nor in the channel as well.
Is it just me or does it seem the ants wont have enough room to grow due to the limited space avail to nest in. It looks great but it may be the scale that is tricking my eye but the rocks dont look that big and seem they have more room in the setup they are in now than what they will have in the new setup
Glow-in-the-dark mushrooms could be a neat addition to this setup, and would help a bit with decomposition. They're a neat (and safe) addition to vivs for frogs and smaller reptiles. Kits are readily available for introducing them.
@@zwei670 I suppose, yes, but generally these mushrooms require a decaying piece of wood of sorts to grow on. Usually included in a kit. So - you have to be trying to get them in the enclosure, for the most part. But even then, they're just mushrooms.

AntsCanada 2020: I built a new AVATAR FLOATING MOUNTAINS for my ants AntsCanada 3020: I found this planet and hope for it to be the new home of our ants
I think using different glow in the dark sands attached to the rocks with a paintbrush and some black silicone would work, and maybe some glowing pebbles in the water. Also, you could put decorative plants used specifically for dioramas and paint them with glowing paints to create the glowing plant aesthetic. It could still work Edit: he is adding the ants tonight so it looks like we’ve lost the chance to change his mind. Unfortunate.
There are some PHOTOLUMINESCENT PIGMENTs out there, it might be possible to mix those with some transparent coding and paint some parts of the setup to make these areas to glow in dark.
maybe put some hidden glowing plants behind the rocks in the water. the glow from behind in the dark would be amazing! during the day you wouldn’t even see the plants so it wouldn’t break the scale...!
And so the mighty AntsCanada said to the palidarium “let there be light!” And there was backlight. “Let there be water” and there was rainfall, water and a waterfall. “Let there be mountains” and there were floating mountains. “Let there be plants” and there was moss. Then AntsCanada looked at over all he had created and he saw it was good so on the seventh day he rested. Truly stellar job on the build. You are the Ant God
You NEED to add dragonflies (or damselflies)! They live above water and eat small insects, and occasionally will be preyed on by the ants. They would be like those dragon things in avatar (forgot what they're called) and would look amazing in there.
maybe you can add the glowing material only in the water... so when its dark the water is glowing c: but at the day you didnt see that so much because of other real plants. hope you will read it ^^
Have you considered using a “moon” light for the evenings that would give a blue light look to stuff and make certain materials light up while maintaining the natural daytime look still. If nothing else it would make the water look crazy at night, a lot of salt water tanks do it 😁
AntsCanada, after adding plants: The moment has come to populate this Avatar-themed floating mountains paludarium and officially bring it to life! Plants: - sad, alive plant noises -
I don't know if this is possible but could look great a few small plants between the moss here and there. Mostly cause of the effect of glowing in the fog.
“Not bad for a replica, right?” Not bad? This is AMAZING! Wow I love this so much and I’m glad you went with this. I love Avatar and the world of Pandora at Disney World and it’s so cool to see it recreated as a home for ants
No cancerous intros, no annoying 5 second challenges, just when the video starts they go straightforward to the point, no "this much people have subscribed and this many have not, no clickbait. Even though he did all the work, still he said "look at what WE created together" a-am I in heaven??
I think some small floating vegetation and aquatic, small, plants would give some contrast and interest to the lower regions of the habitat. But I am impressed with the build and the ants will look like giants with the small scale plant.
hey ! I have a idea for your "glowing" problem, you could add glow in the dark food colorant to the water, there is translucent food coloring if you want to keep the water a normal look during the day, it might be a little hard to find just the right one but it shouldn't hurt the ants (at least from what I know, I'm not a professional.) and when passing trough plant a majority of them will have a slight glow.
That's how I feel when he took away our channel name rights with the ant Senate I liked ac but now making me pay him once a month to give name suggestions is outrageous
AC: they’ll live in the floating mountains! The ants: hey uhhh, we found this spot where the foam wasn’t completely sealed so I think we are gonna live there, thanks tho.
My mom keeps yelling at me and my little brother and it’s really stressful but these videos are such a nice calm little escape :)) never underestimate you and your videos affects on people, love you AC family 💜💜
I wish you had tried to incorporate the "tree". That would have been neat. However, I absolutely love this. I hope you can find a workaround for the glowing plants. 👍
Is it just me, or if the place gets called "The Ember Islands" we're going to stumble across an old holiday home for the queen of the original fire ant colony

AC question of the week: The plants must have have small leaves so as to not to destroy (the ratio)of the majestic looking floating mountains. Small plants make mountains BIG. BIG plants make mountains small...
Destroy the size of? That's not quite how it should be phrased. They won't destroy the size. They'll just throw off the ratios and the plants will look out of place because the leaves will be the same size as some of the smaller rocks. The scaling gets thrown off but the size of the mountains is not destroyed. They're still the same size.
I would like to ask about the structural integrity of the suspended rocks in the long run... Under the weight of the soil, the ants, and the daily rain
As for this AC Question of the Week: "Why are little plants with small leaves preferable for this Paludarium?" My answer is: =They spread quickly and they grow without soil onto rocks and decors. They're also great for the diorama because it's all rock place
That's just a feature of the plants he decided to use. Not all small plants with small leaves grow this way. So that's not the answer to the question. He told you why he needed small leaves in they video. And it had nothing to do with them growing without dirt.
@@Connor-jl9gq not "and because" because the OP didn't state the reason why small plants were used. He could've used small plants that grow in dirt. He gave a definitive reason why small plants were used in the video and it had nothing to do with how they grow without dirt. That's just a feature of the plants he used not a feature of all small plants that he could've possibly used.
Jordan Whitfield I meant take the props he already has and hide them in the water behind rocks/crevices and it will give the water a glow without being able to see them
After watching this video, I have an idea for the glow in the dark here’s the idea: Put those glow in the dark beneath the underwater caves that will make it look more cool and hidden. The lights will be cool. You can try this. If this did not work I will be very sorry.
I wonder if you could 3D print some of these "floating rocks" and other hardscapes. Doing so could probably provide a sturdy custom built structure to the design you wanted, and also made so there are cavities and channels inside the rock for the ants to expand into. Assuming you had a 3D printing material that could not be broken down by the ants.
You could maybe add some of those glow in the dark plants in the back/caves underwater, that way you still have some glow in the dark plants but they arent too obvious :)
Question of the week: the smaller leaves makes the floating mountains look bigger, adding to the feel of the diorama being huge mountains floating in the air. It’s all about scale!!!
@@gabiya6567 no its named in reference to the movie Avatar. The one where humans go to the moon pandora that has floating mountains, hence the floating mountain paladarium.
@@gabiya6567 also there was no Phoenix empire in avatar the last airbender, fire lord Ozai just started calling himself Phoenix king Ozai. This colony was named the Phoenix Empire in remembrance of the fire nation that died because pheonixes are reborn from their ashes.
Hey. I want to thank you for the subtitles. Gone deaf recently and just realised that not many channels i watch(ed) do this. Appreciate it. And of course, amazing videos. Thanks.
Long ago the fire ants, weaver ants, carpenter ant, black garden ant lived together in harmony and peace but everything changed when the fire ant nation attacked.
@antscanada. There might be a problem with the new setup. There’s not as much dirt as the old setup had , so the set up might get outgrown by the ants more quickly.
I wish you'd put more plants in there. Even if it made the "mountains" look smaller, it would just make everything look that much more alive and exotic. Also, you could hide the glow-in-the-dark plants in the water and the caves within the water. Or maybe grab some non-toxic glow in the dark paint, thin it out and sprinkle a little bit on the rocks.
Well if you paid any attention to what he said about the plants you'd know why he started off with small plants and not leave this stupid comment. Try watching the video again and this time actually pay attention instead of letting what he says go in one of your ears, bounce around your empty skull, then go out the other ear.
You can still paint the tips of the roots that hold the stones up with the glowing colors ! Maybe even parts of the rocks to make it look like glowing moss?
NATALIE SALTER they did NOT exist at the same time. The Byzantines did not call THEMSELVES the Byzantine Empire. To them they were still the Roman Empire. We call them the Byzantines because you can’t be Roman Empire without Rome.
@AntsCanada if i could make a suggestion, how about getting some miniatures of plants and mushrooms and things like that and adding some glowing paint to specific areas of them. that way they look both good in normal lighting and under black light. not sure if you have already thought of this so i just thought to throw it out there.
at 12:47, look at the glass panel at the top of the terrarium closest to the camera shot. it looks like some sort of insect the size of an ant on the OUTSIDE of the terrarium.

Maybe you can drill in small holes in the rocks, then put the glow in the dark things inside so they are embedded and really only seen at night.
Hmm I could try this! Good idea!
yea cool
@@AntsCanada you should do it in the next video
Hmmm yea choool
Don't they need to be exposed to light during "day" to recharge their luminosity?
I think using different glow in the dark sands attached to the rocks with a paintbrush and some black silicone would work, and maybe some glowing pebbles in the water.

maybe put some hidden glowing plants behind the rocks in the water. the glow from behind in the dark would be amazing! during the day you wouldn’t even see the plants so it wouldn’t break the scale...!

also you can paint the rocks with the glow in thecdark paint or syntetic leaves (small once)

You should cut the glow in the dark plants into small pieces and make them grass shaped and place them around.

He could have it on a separate switch so it would only turn on when he is filming. That way it's not unnecessarily doing that in off hours
The flashing might hurt the ants honestly
Little plants/small leaves...are needed for “scaling” purposes...to be in proportion and keep the Hallelujah Mts looking BIG & impressive!
I think some small floating vegetation and aquatic, small, plants would give some contrast and interest to the lower regions of the habitat. But I am impressed with the build and the ants will look like giants with the small scale plant.

And because it looks really weird if you have a massive leaf on a small island when the intention is to pretend the small island is big
That's just a feature of the plants he decided to use. Not all small plants with small leaves grow this way. So that's not the answer to the question. He told you why he needed small leaves in they video. And it had nothing to do with them growing without dirt.
@@Connor-jl9gq not "and because" because the OP didn't state the reason why small plants were used. He could've used small plants that grow in dirt. He gave a definitive reason why small plants were used in the video and it had nothing to do with how they grow without dirt. That's just a feature of the plants he used not a feature of all small plants that he could've possibly used.
Your answer is wrong.
Scale
Maybe you could add some of the glowing things in the caves out of view, that was the sense of scale is preserved but you get glowy water!
You mean the water that you touch at night will glow? Cause that is a thing
Jordan Whitfield I meant take the props he already has and hide them in the water behind rocks/crevices and it will give the water a glow without being able to see them
"And so AC Family, I think you guys know what's coming up next..."
Me, who knows that background music: Cliff hanger? Cliff hanger.
I seriously got a ad for coffee 😂
Wow! I'd never expect to see such a cool looking paludarium. Looks awsome and I can't wait to see the creatures that will live in it.
Never had a doubt, I knew when you attempted to make these floating islands that you were going to impress us all. Much love AC!!!
After watching this video, I have an idea for the glow in the dark here’s the idea:
Put those glow in the dark beneath the underwater caves that will make it look more cool and hidden.
The lights will be cool. You can try this.
If this did not work I will be very sorry.
I hope it works so he won’t waste those glow toys
I wonder if you could 3D print some of these "floating rocks" and other hardscapes. Doing so could probably provide a sturdy custom built structure to the design you wanted, and also made so there are cavities and channels inside the rock for the ants to expand into. Assuming you had a 3D printing material that could not be broken down by the ants.
No but what if the ants start trying to dig through them
Yeah that’s be cool but the ants would probably try and dig through them
"The wait is finally over"

Ha ha ha ha ha ha
Hooman nibblet taste gud NOOM
In the wrong universe I must be
You forgot the mhmhmnmmnh part at the start xd
But I might hurt her
You could maybe add some of those glow in the dark plants in the back/caves underwater, that way you still have some glow in the dark plants but they arent too obvious :)
Ants Canada: Behold-
My iPad: A coffee add!
Kirk P, I got a coffee ad as well, at the same place too. Lol
While it could never fully replace the Salva de Fuego, it is fit and ready to receive the Phoenix Empire.
“AC Family, behold”
*ad appears*
Yep
The one that antscanada want to show us is an ad
That's true like add brake add doesn't come not even 10 seconds later add bonjour.
"if you are new to this channel or dont know" i mean, since january, 99% of your video are about fire ants, it's hard to miss
I’m sitting here at 5:00am binge watching ants Canada after ordering a ac test tube portal and next thing u know this vid !!!!!!
You should go to sleep
Adding soil to the floating islands was an amazing idea can't wait to see them walk across the lines!!!
Question of the week: the smaller leaves makes the floating mountains look bigger, adding to the feel of the diorama being huge mountains floating in the air. It’s all about scale!!!
im a simple man, i see floating mountains, i click
Im also a simple man, i see interesting ant i click
I’m to also a simple man i see ants And Canada in the name I click
My too simple man
I see ants and I go *click*
You should try making the fire nation from Avatar: The Last Airbender maybe The Gates Of Azulon I think it would be fitting for them
I think he already had one called the Fire Nation.
@@marah7275 that's the one that died and the reason he created this new one.
astrolover 95 yeah and this new one is also named in reference to avatar the last airbender
@@gabiya6567 no its named in reference to the movie Avatar. The one where humans go to the moon pandora that has floating mountains, hence the floating mountain paladarium.
@@gabiya6567 also there was no Phoenix empire in avatar the last airbender, fire lord Ozai just started calling himself Phoenix king Ozai. This colony was named the Phoenix Empire in remembrance of the fire nation that died because pheonixes are reborn from their ashes.
You should’ve kept a cup of the fire nation’s dirt in like a jar and labeled it
Like here lies the fire nation
like here lies the fire nation

2020: i made a avatar theme poladaruim
2030:hi guys im an ant now
I Love your videos btw💖💖💖
Man you know that 2020 sucks when the best ant colony dies is the beginning
Ants Canada: AC Family, behold!
Ad: *appears*
Me: Hmm yes interesting Apple Arcade Ad
That happend to me too

Hey. I want to thank you for the subtitles. Gone deaf recently and just realised that not many channels i watch(ed) do this. Appreciate it.
And of course, amazing videos. Thanks.
Ant love is for everyone! You're welcome!
This looks cool but I can't help but wonder if they'll have enough digging medium after all.
Came here to say this... it already looks too small for how big the colony is.
I wonder if fire ants don't do a lot of digging/tunneling?
@@JusNoBS420 I think maybe he feels this will keep the ant colony smaller.
AC question of the week: The plants must have have small leaves so as to not to destroy (the size)of the majestic looking floating mountains.
Long ago the fire ants, weaver ants, carpenter ant, black garden ant lived together in harmony and peace but everything changed when the fire ant nation attacked.
That sounds like the beginning of a sensational story😃😃
Only the bulldog ant the master of all four ant colonies could stop them but when the world needed him the most he got SQUISHED
@Nameless no, its the right avatar
But I believe Mike can save the ant world
Hihi
I really appreciate people like this that put so much effort into their pets to get them the best life possible, big kudos to you
@antscanada. There might be a problem with the new setup. There’s not as much dirt as the old setup had , so the set up might get outgrown by the ants more quickly.
He probably has a plan for something new once this happens. I’m sure he wouldn’t miss this detail.
I wish you'd put more plants in there. Even if it made the "mountains" look smaller, it would just make everything look that much more alive and exotic.
Also, you could hide the glow-in-the-dark plants in the water and the caves within the water. Or maybe grab some non-toxic glow in the dark paint, thin it out and sprinkle a little bit on the rocks.
Well if you paid any attention to what he said about the plants you'd know why he started off with small plants and not leave this stupid comment. Try watching the video again and this time actually pay attention instead of letting what he says go in one of your ears, bounce around your empty skull, then go out the other ear.
There'll grow bigger eventually.
Imagine bonsai trees in this paladarium
You can still paint the tips of the roots that hold the stones up with the glowing colors ! Maybe even parts of the rocks to make it look like glowing moss?
Imagine putting costumes on the ants for halloween it will be cute
lol
The only times I like bugs are with AntsCanada
The Phoenix Empire is like the Byzantine Empire, not quite Rome, but still quite large and powerful
NATALIE SALTER they did NOT exist at the same time. The Byzantines did not call THEMSELVES the Byzantine Empire. To them they were still the Roman Empire. We call them the Byzantines because you can’t be Roman Empire without Rome.
The Canadian version
Ye
Finalist Burrito Was about to point that out. Glad I am not the only one who knows some history.
So what will be the equivalent version of the Turks?
The rain was a great idea because the ants do their little rain dance whenever it rains 🥰
@AntsCanada if i could make a suggestion, how about getting some miniatures of plants and mushrooms and things like that and adding some glowing paint to specific areas of them. that way they look both good in normal lighting and under black light. not sure if you have already thought of this so i just thought to throw it out there.
at 12:47, look at the glass panel at the top of the terrarium closest to the camera shot. it looks like some sort of insect the size of an ant on the OUTSIDE of the terrarium.
yeah, ants canada needs to see that. not 100% if it is an ant but looks like one. plus he has had problems like that before.
definitely looks like one
Imagine being an ant and finding yourself in this man's house
I’d be damn lucky-
I’d be happy for a week and ready to die at the end
I’d be one of the luckiest ants in the world
stonks
I'd instantly die because the colonys would kill me
You could try putting some leds or something behind individual plants in the water to get the glow in the dark effect still
