This is something that can be done with ease. Say you have an atta colony with tons of fungus and an acro colony with none. But your worried about them not accepting atta fungus? Here's how!
Take the atta fungus and don't feed it for a day or two. Remove all workers inside the fungus and give it to the ants. Place a few workers inside the fungus and a few tiny peices of te Acromyrmex favourite leaf. Then slowly heat them up from 20*c to 25*c. Over the next few days feed them as normal as monitor the fungus to see if it becomes smoother and more like Acromyrmex fungus!
