Wat's up Scavengers! Hope you enjoyed this awesome Mossy Vivarium formicarium build!😄
I have for some time now, wanted to build a mossy vivarium, so I am really happy now that I did. I think it turned out great! What do you think?
-----
NOTE: The "Sika Multiprimer" I am talking about, is a very flammable and toxic liquid and you should seek help from your parents if you want to try and use it. That being said, it works amazingly! :D

I bought the multiprimer here:

Pheidole are an abundant but still an amazing genus. I can’t wait until mine get their majors .

@runar4993 5 лет назад

@MrsRabbit8 4 года назад

Pheidole are my favorite, though my experience is only with P. Dentigula. I love how the Majors act much different than the Minors.

@wildlifeisthewealthofnatur5457 3 года назад

Pheidoles as a genus is abundant but many species are rare and endemic to only a certain region.

Top tip, attaché the colony and allow the old set up to dry out! In most cases they should normally move over quite quickly! Nice video btw! X

@MrsRabbit8 4 года назад

This is good advice. As the old living space dries, is less hospitable, they will move... more gentle..

@MrsRabbit8 4 года назад

I have a very small colony of Pheidole Dentigula. They are a challenge because they don't like most foods, only small flies, no sugary foods. Any suggestions? You have excellent skills! Thank you for this video, i will be using some of these ideas.

@angus2853 4 года назад

Isnt the stick and the moisty environment for the moss, super good for mold? You also put honey in the stick

@MrsRabbit8 4 года назад

I had a problem with mold. Airflow is key. Also springtails help. Also, a biological spray, with beneficial bacteria and enzymes helps a bunch, sprayed once a week. Using distilled water the rest of the time. Yep, i don't put honey or other foods on permanent environment, soaks in and grows mold.

@nang9484 2 года назад

How do you water it?

@abravo2487 5 лет назад

Hey ants Scandinavia, just curious how do you use the potting soil? I’ve heard that fertilizers and other additives can cause problems with your colony. Do you wash, freeze, or cook the potting soil? Any kind of preparation or tips and tricks for natural ant set ups would be greatly appreciated.

@piesaurus6008 4 года назад

I’m late but he probably bought non fertilized soil and collected the clay from nature so it wasn’t chemical filled or anything but if you are planning to make one I wouldn’t recommend taking soil from places just in case it has pesticides and stuff

@patrickquinn9631 3 года назад

Awesome build! Update soon?

@AntsVienna 5 лет назад

Nice Vivarium Mate! So you added that new 'Glue' on top of the Aquarium Silicon layer? Have to make one of these too. My colonies sure would looove to be in soil. :)

@AntsScandinavia 5 лет назад

Ooh, no I added it with a cloth to the akryllic. And then let it dry for 1 min. Byt it has to be SUUPER clean before you do it. Good luck!

Not really, what insects could that be? Mites? Ye sure, but how else will I get a setup looking that good ;)

@critterchamber 4 года назад

hey man. does oil work well as a barrier? i made a smaller version of this for my pheidole. the plastic sticks well without any leak even when i did not use a primer. i water tested it and there was no leak. Also would you give my channel a shout out? could really use some support.

@Arnecrypt 5 лет назад

Dude... Why didnt you just hook up a tube and make it more attractive for them to move? So they can move when they feel the need to move.. I think you gave the colony much stress which was not needed right?

@wolfsbane123 5 лет назад

I 100% agree. He could have just covered the tube in baby powder mixed with alcohol and put it in the aquarium so they could move in on their time but not climb the tube to escape.

@AntsScandinavia 5 лет назад

Hi! I understand you concern, yes I could have done that. However, from my experiance, thease guys are just like Lasius Niger, they dont move if they are not forced too xd. Plus, it went well didnt it?

@Arnecrypt 5 лет назад

@@AntsScandinavia Yeah it went allright, but still lot of stress.. But if this is the only way then so it be! Are Lasius N that hard yeah?... Gosh... Still got 5 colonys I need to move...

@piesaurus6008 4 года назад

I’m late but it’s far less stress to dump them or move them manually exposing them to harsh conditions for longer is way more stressful and pheidole will not move themselves so it was a good choice
