charles17: Mold in test tube (12. Sep 2009 07:11)

I have some Myrmecocystus mimicus queens in test tubes, and one of the test tubes has developed mold on the moist cotton stopper. I'm not sure, but I think there might be some mold on the queen in that test tube. I've included a picture attachment. What does one do in this situation? Thanks~

the picture is too bad..if you cant get a better one go on a graphicprogram and circle it with a red circle..

I dont think that it is mold... its just a little bit dirty

I would connect a second teste tube to the first one so they can move out if it really is mouldy.
