Re: Reevey Acromyrmex Aquarium setup
At this time of year you should try and get fresh wild leaves Steve, make the most of summer. Winter feels like a long time here and the selection is limited, fresh eliminates the insecticide risk also.

Hi Steve, any comparison pics? Last ones where 3 months ago, must be slot more activity and fungus size I'd imagine by now.

Re: Reevey Acromyrmex Aquarium setup
morning was going to take lid off first small tub this morning. and show you that they have filled it to the top but theres a lot of activity and they seem to be using the other small tub next to the first one.
so thought I would leave them to it.
will let you know in a few days if this is the case
cheers reevey

Re: Reevey Acromyrmex Aquarium setup
Getting there Steve, so what are you thinking? Keep adding little tubs as they need them or do you have any ideas?
What about adding a small Stewart hatching box next so at least you can see through the lid, might make watching more interesting.
