Cheers guys : )
I think my bill was around £30-40 for the first lot of acrylic pipe then about £60 for the second lot, its expensive when you go in larger sizes, then I had a few bits and bobs lying around which helped keep cost down but near £100 is expensive but should keep them sorted for now lol

Brilliant! Any future plans, like a second colony of Attas? You might have to move house though

Hi Adam, can I ask did the cylinders come with the lids? Did you cut the circular bases for the containers?
cheers

Wow, that looks amazing! Seriously you should be proud of that set up. I thought the spheres were good but this is a whole new level.

I have to agree with Mark, the new set up looks even more like a real Atta nest than the globes did. Incredible how just making these has made the ants more space to increase the size of the fungus gardens and I expect to see an even bigger colony growing from the new set up. Wonderful news to hear you have been made the Leader of the Leaf Cutter Club Adam, as even though I have never kept these ants I do enjoy reading your journal and thanks for all the hard work and info mate.
