looks about right, although you dont want the sand above the level of the connection pipes really, have it just below, maybe 1-2mm

von **mzfckr** » 13. Sep 2007 15:55

and one more question.okay i need to keep the glass farm keep out of sunlight but what about the basin?

von **miszt** » 13. Sep 2007 15:59

keep them both out of direct sunlight, they will act like Greenhouses and cook ur ants

von **mzfckr** » 13. Sep 2007 17:16

they can hibernate at 13c?my fridge have that temp.

von **miszt** » 13. Sep 2007 17:18

your fridge is at 13c? a fridge should be 8-10C to keep food best

and also <10C is where your ants will hibernate, but u mustnt put them straight in the fridge, you need to drop the tempreture over a few weeks

is this right?
