My New AVATAR-THEMED FLOATING MOUNTAINS Paludarium for Ants
Join the Great AC SENATE to get access to new perks/voting powers on this channel:
/ @antscanada
We did it! We created an Avatar-themed Floating Mountains paludarium for our fire ants (the Phoenix Empire). There are some really incredible features to the paludarium which make it one of the greatest ant kingdoms we've ever created on this channel, and we did it together with the AC Family (viewers of this channel). Ant love forever! This video was shot in 4K Ultra HD resolution.
Special thanks to terrarium engineer Ryan Jett for his amazing work with creating the floating mountains!

You NEED to add dragonflies (or damselflies)! They live above water and eat small insects, and occasionally will be preyed on by the ants. They would be like those dragon things in avatar (forgot what they're called) and would look amazing in there.

I think using different glow in the dark sands attached to the rocks with a paintbrush and some black silicone would work, and maybe some glowing pebbles in the water. Also, you could put decorative plants used specifically for dioramas and paint them with glowing paints to create the glowing plant aesthetic. It could still work Edit: he is adding the ants tonight so it looks like we’ve lost the chance to change his mind. Unfortunate.

hey ! I have a idea for your "glowing" problem, you could add glow in the dark food colorant to the water, there is translucent food coloring if you want to keep the water a normal look during the day, it might be a little hard to find just the right one but it shouldn't hurt the ants (at least from what I know, I'm not a professional.) and when passing trough plant a majority of them will have a slight glow.

Great tank dude. You should consider cutting the glow in the dark stuff and gluing them down in random spots. They will be less noticeable once you have added more plants and they will add a cool pop all around.
I think it would still look very cool if you're able to get smaller glow in the dark something or others specifically for the water! It looks almost like massive alien plants growing, like Subnautica, and they'd be low enough in the day that the fog could cover them. Like a day night alien biome
I wish you had tried to incorporate the "tree". That would have been neat. However, I absolutely love this. I hope you can find a workaround for the glowing plants. 👍

You need a waterfall flowing off one of the top floating islands! Then it’ll really give an avatar feel. I see some water trickling off, but the water fall is needed in the center of the tank!!

You could solve the plants issue by getting a couple-several small bonsai trees. Just make sure you get one that's not going to outgrow the paludarium. I'm not sure how maintenance on them goes however. Just thought it was an obvious solution to the plants vs size issue, as a bonsai would be like a large tree if the stones are mountains.
A small bonsai tree growing on one of the islands with its roots wrapped around it would look cool. Kind of like a little tree of life or the end of castle in the sky.
2020 is a hell of a year even for ants, RIP Fire Nation

Destroy the size of? That's not quite how it should be phrased. They won't destroy the size. They'll just throw off the ratios and the plants will look out of place because the leaves will be the same size as some of the smaller rocks. The scaling gets thrown off but the size of the mountains is not destroyed. They're still the same size.

ThePrufessa 🙏. I was trying to find that correct phrase...
At 8:30 you can see that there is already some sort of insect residing in the tank at the top middle of the glass, probably the first inhabitant of the renovated area
Maybe try putting the glow in the dark items in the water alone? That way the water, at night, will glow up! And that glow in the water at night can reveal the aquatic life. Plus, the way it would glow off the fog may look super cool too! What do you think of that idea?
When he said he was gonna do the floating islands I thought there’s no way and HE DID IT HE ACTUALLY DID IT
I would like to ask about the structural integrity of the suspended rocks in the long run... Under the weight of the soil, the ants, and the daily rain

@antscanada that plant is called “rock weed” or “shotgun weed” it has a lot of common names. They are very aggressive growers FYI
Best paladarium so far. Cant wait to see it in 100% complete.
If you get florescent powder and mix it with some cement, i think it could mimic that glow in the dark your looking for, but other than that you could use lights or something

That's just a feature of the plants he decided to use. Not all small plants with small leaves grow this way. So that's not the answer to the question. He told you why he needed small leaves in they video. And it had nothing to do with them growing without dirt.

You could hide the smaller glow in the dark blob-things behind and in the plants. This would mean that the day aesthetic would not be ruined but in sufficient darkness it would still look like Pandora

I wish you'd put more plants in there. Even if it made the "mountains" look smaller, it would just make everything look that much more alive and exotic. Also, you could hide the glow-in-the-dark plants in the water and the caves within the water. Or maybe grab some non-toxic glow in the dark paint, thin it out and sprinkle a little bit on the rocks.

I wonder if you could 3D print some of these "floating rocks" and other hardscapes. Doing so could probably provide a sturdy custom built structure to the design you wanted, and also made so there are cavities and channels inside the rock for the ants to expand into. Assuming you had a 3D printing material that could not be broken down by the ants.
