I'm sorry, but I'm not quiet sure what you are trying to say.

The test tube I have here in is small and will not hold here and workers for very long getting low on water was under the impression that I would be bad to move to a formicarioum to soon so was going to transfer her to a new fresh tube set up with plenty of water

Just attach a 2nd larger testube to it with the new one under a towel and the older one in the light and she will move, just be sure to make sure she can breathe, but can't escape.

Ok I didn't no if it would be easier if she had some workers to help here move the young or if she would do it herself
