I wouldn't mess with the main garden, you have taken from it already a few times and they just replace it.
Sounds like the conditions aren't to there liking in the second pod, have you measured the temperature and humidity in the second pod?
Are you using clay like you did in the first?

Id check the temperature just in case, doesn't really matter that the pod is full, mine is also but they like to build up the numbers of ants first. Strange though as your second garden looked like it was well on its way. Have you been on holiday?

So the second fungus was gone on your return? Could be your reason.Atta solider wrote:Yeah went away and feed them I filled 2 pods of roses and other leafs and put out almonds flasks as well
