I'm really sorry to hear that your colony has gone, it's such a shame because they were doing really well!

Jamie, god, just seeing this now!!!
What a disaster.
Always at the back of my mind about my nests, especially if I go away for a few days!
So sorry, lots of work down the toilet.
Anyway, time to pick yourself up and get going again. If it wasnt for the bad times you wouldnt know when you were having a good time!

Lol was a sight, I did feel like packing it all in and sticking with the fish I've got to be honest. I've put the heat back and and I've been surprised how many ants came back to life. I can't see that queen and I've been checking dump everyday to see if she has been disposed off. Lots of fungus now in dump but still not noticed a queen. If I see new eggs I'll be able to say its still going. Was between 5-6 degrees, power of for 16 hours :evil:
