Hello, glad to find this forum as it has been a few years since I kept atta's and am a wee bit rusty on husbandry. My last colony was setup at a reptile shop I used to own, I will add some picks below :)

Thanks for replies, the setup was done by Andrew and the open ropes were great fun for the customers. The colony remained with the shop after I sold it but I am about to purchase a new colony so thought I'd better get back into the swing

That was a really nice set up, simple and easy to display the ants. I wish other public colony displays took a leaf out of Paul and Francescas book when designing their setups. Big easy to care for setup and in your face foraging. Fantastic. Nice to see pictures, takes me back!!

Nice and classy! Is your new setup domestic or retail?
