    As someone who has worked at PetSmart working with crickets for over 2 years. I can say, without a shadow of a doubt, that crickets, through some sort of unholy dark magic, no matter how small or avoidable it is, will always find a way to drown themselves in a body of water and die. So I don't think you need to worry to much about the other insects drowning, this is just what crickets do lol.

    I am someone who has a (I would consider it rational and healthy) intense fear of ants. No issues with any other insects or arachnids, but after witnessing what some colonies of ants are capable of in Puerto Rico when I was about 13, I couldn't ever shake this feeling. When I think about how many ants one mound can contain under the surface, and the power of a colony working together, it makes me think that ants should, by all rights, be the dominant lifeform on this planet.
    Anyway, even though I know the power these creatures hold, and how quickly they can devour whatever they deem desirable, I have to admit, being able to see mother nature in her unfettered beauty really made me appreciate what you're doing with this channel. Your style reminds me a lot of the Kratt Brothers, but without simplifying the information too much. Good to see the size of the AC family here. I could easily see this series being a massive success on Animal Planet... but why go to them, when you have a veritable animal planet within your own home!

    Sad about the poor Gecko :( I think it very likely that she could have been overwhelmed by how many ants you have in there. Lots of repeated bites and venom could have easily taken her down if they caught her in her sleep or something. Doesn't seem like there would have been many spots safe from the ants in that enclosure.

      That vivarium was essentially a torture chamber for that poor gecko. Outnumbered by thousands of ants in a space that's still a small enclosure when you consider that they occupy a range of probably a couple kilometers in the wild. Nature is brutal but when we manipulate it according to our human whims it becomes a bit uncanny and sadistic.

    For the water, you want scuds. They're native to every corner of the world, and are relentless scavengers that will pick apart ANY source of protein they have access to. All your other options like fish or amano shrimp will be too large to produce new generations in that pond like you want for this ecosystem. They play nice with daphnia magna (filter feders), and freshwater isopods (substrate feeders).

    • @AntsCanada
      @AntsCanada  10 місяців тому +183

      Fire ants weren't seen while shooting this episode. I'm still hoping there was no queen introduced (just workers) and they are dying out now. I know it may look like the ants are dominating and totally filling all areas of the tank due to the tight closeup shots, if you look carefully at the wider shots that show the true scale of the tank, you'll see that the ants are only minor players in the vivarium. It still lacks the ant biodiversity of a cloud rainforest. I remember being in Mt. Banahaw shooting the Blue Ant episode in awe at how many ants and nests were crammed into any given smallish space.

    I randomly saw a post of your new ‘tank’, thought how cinematically beautiful it looked and how I’d love to have that in my house (though terrified creatures would escape).

It's an honor to be watching your hard work and I'm thrilled it's all getting the attention it deserves! I think about it non-stop in anticipation of next week's episode! It's so captivating. Also, I'm so in love with those marauder ants! ❤❤

      I’m glad to hear that you’re enjoying the Pandora series on UA-cam! It’s always exciting to see creators like this who are passionate about their work and are able to share it with the world. The marauder ants are definitely fascinating creatures, and it’s amazing to see how they interact with the other organisms in the vivarium. I’m looking forward to seeing what happens next in the series, and I’m sure that the creator will continue to come up with new and innovative ideas to keep us all captivated. Keep up the great work, and thanks for sharing your thoughts with us! 😊

      33:44 I think it's a snake 🐍 Likely a small garden snake or something similar. Look again at the time stamp and zoom in, pretty sure you can see it land on the side of the container when he lowers it in.

    I got to watch all kinds of projects of building ecosystems on UA-cam, but what you have built here is simply impressive on every possible scale, I didn't know it was possible to reach such a high level of creating an environment so compatible with what nature created inside a "glass box" for such a large variety of insects, and the way you explain the life course of what happens there is simply amazing. I saw in the other comments that there is a chance that you might broadcast this project 24/7, I hope you do. I'm sure he'll watch it.
