I'm starting a journal about my two colonies, one Messor barbarus and one Lasius niger. Their nest is all hand made or tweeked to my liking apart from one ants canada formic that I purchased. I guess technically even that is hand made lol. I have not placed the ants in their new home yet because I'm still working out all the kinks. Also, this is not a strictly personal journal so feel free to post here or email me any comments. my email is ame315@gmail.com |

This is the arena area you can see the tubes along the back and coming out of the hydro-stone base. On top of the pillars are two sand stone slate pieces I figured would add a lot of great surface area so I can move there food around from time to time so its more natural.

As I'm sure you have noticed, I've had to crop the photos down a bit. I've been taking them on my iphone and I guess it makes them into files that are too large. Anyways, I'm not posting a picture of the antscanada fourm because everyone knows what they look like and its not something I feel like editing down to a small enough size lol ;D
