Lareon: Hydration Tube (26. Feb 2014 15:19)

Hi guys,

Last year i bought the AM T-Formicarium 45x25cm

but i must not have realized it came with a tube for hydrating the sand and i think it got thrown away with the packaging.

I was wondering if i could buy a replacement?

All the best

Tony

well, I don't know what "tubes" come with those T-Formicariums but basically this can be done with a regular straw,
it's just a way to get the water all the way down to the ground and not make it wet from the top.
you should close this straw after you moisted the nest afterwards to prevent the ants from crawling into it

Maybe check first atmospheric humidity in your formicarium (fomicary?).

Then check, if your Ants are compatible with this humidity in formicary.

If they are not compatible, tell me specific/breed of your ants an we´ll find a solution.
