Description

A very pretty colony with slow but constant activity, ideal to observe with a magnifying glass, USB microscope or macro mode on your phone to discover its constant activity.

Very easy to raise, likes sweet liquids, small insects and small solid foods as a supplement.

While it appreciates a certain level of humidity due to its tropical rainforest origins, it can be kept in small nests with gradual humidification until it is housed in the most suitable chambers. Rather peaceful, it is ideal for a tropical ecosystem terrarium. Cohabitation with other peaceful species is also possible.


Main features:

  • Worker size: 3 to 4 mm.
  • Diet: Sugary liquids, some dead insects and solid food.
  • Difficulty level: Easy.

Recommended living conditions:

  • Temperature: 22 to 26°C.
  • Humidity: High in the nest area, with a drier area to prevent mold.
  • Nest recommendation: Natural type nests are suitable, for example: Ant Caver from Fourmiculture , ecosystem terrarium etc.

Key features:

  • Gentle behavior: The workers maintain a constant but gentle activity and exhibit very little aggression.
  • Pleasant color: Lovely honey color to observe and photograph.

Ethical commitment and quality:

At Fourmiculture , we place paramount importance on the well-being of our colonies. Our ants are imported by direct flight , a method that significantly reduces stress and mortality associated with shipping by parcel.

After their arrival, they are acclimatized in our facilities , under perfectly controlled climatic conditions, to guarantee their stability and health. This approach allows us to offer robust and well-developed colonies.

Express delivery is mandatory! Whether you choose this option or not, we will always ship this species via express delivery within France at no extra charge for its well-being. For the rest of the world, please select the fastest available carrier.

⚠️ Important : To preserve the balance of local ecosystems, we do not sell this species in tropical areas such as Réunion, Guadeloupe, Martinique, etc., although this species does not, in our opinion, have any invasive potential due to its low aggressiveness, small population and non-invasive and poorly adaptable behavior.
