iám starting out on keeping ants now and i like those ytong nest the most. now i wonder wich ants can be held in a ytong nest? i know all the lasus species

[Martin S.]

In the ytong nest ( http://www.antstore.net/album_cat.php?cat_id=12 ) can you keep the most ants, but not for exsample: (Oecophylla smaragdina = "weaver ants") or ants which live in or on the plants.

This is a ytong nest from Frank:

He is keeping the Bullants.

cool one i wish i could make such things. i can only make stuff like this http://www.antstore.net/album_pic.php?pic_id=61. and i also think that honey pot ants are also not very happy with ytong?

[Martin S.]

I don't not know, I haven't test it with honey pot ants. But why not?

[s8ten]

i gess they wanna hang there 'pots' and i read somewhere that ytong is not very good for that purpose

[Martin S.]

Where have you seen?
One can fill the stone also with ground, then one has a combination from ytong and ground nest.

Greetings Martin
