Hello from the Lakes

Post by Chris_Sturdy » Sun Jun 05, 2016 2:05 pm

Hello All, my name is Chris and I'm the Displays Manager at the Lakes Aquarium. We have a leaf cutter ant colony here and the enclosure was built by Andrew and his team. I hadn't worked with ants before starting here and over the past year they have created some very interesting challenges for me, so on here to learn a bit more.

Hi and welcome. There is a vast library of information on this forum so you are in the right place.

Could I ask what species of ant you keep there? Also, just to push my luck a bit further, would you be able to post pictures of the set up?
