Just when you thought there was debris in your colony.

Over the last month, I have noticed debris piles in the test tubes of my Crematogastor Cerasi colonies. I suspected it was food due to how consipicous it was; somtimes right in the middle of the test tubes. Today, I fed all the colonies, and the colony in the video was fed a bright green grasshopper. About 10 hours after feeding them, I took a look at the colony, and I noticed the grasshopper was nearly entirely consumed, and I noticed a new green debris pile in the test tube. I took a small video of what I observed.
