Can I ask first which species is this?

[jcrusader]

lasius niger it could it be to do with the tempreture i just changed it from 16 to 19

[FredeP]

You can set the temretur on 21-23. That what I have done with mine(:
- And mine isn't moving to, but that's because is a whole new colony with 10-20 workers.
And I think also that's because yours doesn't moveing.

Lasius niger can take a while to move, remeber a test tube is a very good home for an ant colony, and they will only move if they have to, ie if they find somewhere damper/drier, lighter/darker etc for there needs

(its all in the caresheet!)

There is a very good caresheet here at the beginners section about Lasius niger (written by miszt). Read that and most of your questions would be solved.

I know my English isn't perfect nether, but read again before you post you message please.
