ANTSTORE World of Ants

[plewi]

I am considering geting a colony, I have never kept ants before so I was considering geting one of the starter sets but I dont really like any of the Formicarium that comes with them.

I was wondering if it is posible to get the content of the starter sets without the Formicarium or with the choice of Formicarium as I much prefere the 'Glass basins 30x20x20 cm as an apartment' because it is one unit instead of two, you can still view the ants nesting at the front and it still gives the option to extend via the two holes at either side.

It would also be great if in the description of the Formicarium gave the required quantity of sand/ Loam.

Another thing, posibly a different topic but why is there no English books on ant keeping, or are there?

Thanks in advance and I look forward to getting into this fascinating hobby.

Paul.
