ANTSTORE World of Ants

[Deveant]

Hello everybody
I would like to buy ant Camponotus ligniperda
description says that i need to have At least 60x30x30 cm.
So I wounder if I buy this one and do something like that
It will be ok for them? I mean if keep their colony little smaller?
Plus buy a one arena maybe?
Thank you!

Dear Deveant,

to keep this colonie is the size not the problem.
The problem is how to ship to your country.
we dosn't ship the big glasbasins.
Only by a international spedition is it possible.
But i think it's better and cheaper, if you look for a glas workshop in your city.

greetings Martin

i think it would work
but it are very big ants so maybe you can buy the first one so you can build on if necessary. i mean if the colonie starts growing.

good luck

Thank you for answer sorry I didn't spot that it's pick up only
I just changed my mind what I could buy to setlte Messor barbarus?
How big is thing? Or maybe I can build their nest from smaller parts?

And as I understood i can keep adding this tanks to expand colony and nest? Right?

And if I come to Berlin is it a shop you have there? So I can just can come and select what I need?

Can you tell me what advantages and disadvanteges of ytong nests and their and build ones?

As well what ants are good for ANTSTORE Starter Set - glassfarm/arena?

Thank you for your time

P.S.

I decided to start with Myrmica rubra so what should I buy for them? Is Set - glassfarm/arena will be enough?

[FLechdrop]

Right. Now what do you want?
If you really are sticking with M. rubra, then yes, a glassfarm + arena should be enough.

I want everything But my plan is start with M.Rubra get some expirience and then maybe buy a Messor barbarus. I'm still in doubts but at least, I have select types of Ants which I want

[FLechdrop]

I think your plan is a good plan. Stick with it.

I myself have M. rubra, nice ants to start with. Haven't had much problems with it. I keep them in a Y-tong nest i made myself. There are pictures in the Gallery here on the site, look around, then you can see wat kind of formicarium you would like.
