If the conditions are too dry the take the grape and not the orange peel. If the conditions are too wet, they take the peel and not the grape. If they take both then things are ok. :)

Thanks to everyone for the help, and especially Andrew who sent me fungus and told me what to do.

small update ants seem to be cutting not many but they are cutting, I can just see inside little tub from the side and the fungus is definitely getting bigger, so well happy about that.
Haven't seen the queen for a while but she was in there when they moved to this tub.so don't want to disturb them again as they go mad.
Thanks for everyones help with getting them sorted.....
