Photos from a few days ago. I recently sent a decent chunk of fungus to a friend who's colony was struggling, so they were halved, but they're regrowing fastly, all the gray area is from the last 2 days. They're now in a pod setup from Raj :) I'll upload new pics soon

No, it's a completely different design of pods, much like Sean's but with a few differences - I've put a layer of plaster and a few micro live stream cameras in - let's hope they do well.
I havent heard of jack in a while. But he definetely still has his ants. I'll message him now.

At the time Sean didn't have full sets available for sale so I thought I'd make some pre-built ones for Marco.

Marco, did you just put the fungus garden into this container. Looks like it is on its side. No great problem but do you have probes and such in this container? Looks nice and humid with the condensation.

Hi Andrew,
The fungus was already on its side, and continues to grow this way for some reason, it fell over last week. Probes reading 24.3 c and 98% humidity
