can formicarium's be made from sandstone

I am looking to make a formicarium out of sand stone, will this work  8-|or

I wouldn't recommend it, as sandstone will crumble eventually if it gets wet; and it might be found as the roof for a wild nest of ants, but trying to make tunnels and chambers in the stone may prove difficult due to its crumbly texture. 
Fixing a glass or perspex clear cover may also prove to be a bit dicey.

I will give it a miss then and just buy some ytong thank you
