I'll be honest sometimes I turn the lights off so it all looks innocuous... a good majority of clients never mention it but I think some people have experience of keeping fish/ants/reptiles etc. will ask and those people love it .

One client even bought his 11 year old son to a meeting just to see the ants.

Jamie - Ha, commentary... I promise I'll include a commentary next time... I think it will probably be rubbish ..

Hi Richard, our colony has also built 3 fungus in unheated tanks and they are doing very well! As I have said before, when I turned the heat mat on previously, they dismantled the fungus, so I now leave them alone to do what they will...

I always thought that the colony I set up at Twycross Zoo at the mirrors in the ladies and gents toilets was the best positioned colony I have worked with. If anyone got such a fright that they sh*t themselves, they were in the perfect place!

So how did they cope with the Ammonia ?

If they escaped from the tubing you would see them walking into the nest with chunks of toilet seat because of all the urine from the men that splashed on
