Anyone know if Tar Heel Ants and any other sites sell formicariums for Trachymyrmex Septentrionalis? I’m having a hard time finding one.

Fungus growers have quite possibly the easiest setups to make yourself aside from a simple tubs and tubes setup. All you need is a nice container with ~1cm of plaster at the bottom. It works perfectly, you just hydrate the plaster every now and again. They grow their fungus right on the plaster, and these setups have been used for fungus growers for ages now.

I like leafcutter ants. Watch The Ultimate Guide to Fungus Growing Ants:

This video took like over 100 hours of work, you should for sure watch it.
