• Multiple Queens – Collected during a known pleometrotic founding event (where multiple queens start a colony together)
• Workers + Brood – A thriving, active colony already underway
• Free Feeding Dish – Makes feeding easy directly in the tube
• Dual Test Tube Setup – Ships in a specially prepared transport tube to prevent flooding, plus includes a traditional test tube with a water reservoir for long-term housing
• Live Arrival Guarantee – Applies when someone is present at delivery
• Need Help? Our team is ready to walk you through the transfer process step by step via phone or email
This is an incredibly small, shy ant species, perfect for keepers who enjoy subtle, low-maintenance colonies. While their size means they’re best suited for enclosed or fine-mesh habitats, they’re very easy to care for once established.
• Potentially Polygenous – Pleometrosis, the process of multiple queens founding a colony together, is common in this genus. However, dominance behaviors may lead to queen reduction over time.
• Fast Establishment – Colonies founded by multiple queens typically grow faster and stronger during early development.
• Low Escape Risk – Due to their non-aggressive nature and small size, they’re unlikely to challenge a proper barrier when housed correctly.
