  • u can get that ant farm from Vat19.com cause i was the vid

  • I fucking want an ant farm now!

  • How long can the ants live in that container

  • IN every video, it seems like the ants go to the sides first

  • Did you get that from VAT19.com?

  • I had one of these... but they ate each other in at least two weeks. :(

  • This is what it would look like from a side view if you had a time lapse of someone playing Minecraft.

  • @Miiaku yeah true

  • Buy lol!!!!playstation is notthe live

  • how many photos the camera takes a minute?

  • Too much minecraft for ants

  • how do you get this farm thing?????

  • Thumbs up up if you ended up here from minecraft videos.

  • what is this blue stuff?

  • chill bro, they're just ants. not like we're gonna run out of them anytime soon.

  • I have the same farm!

  • Worst type of ant setup. The gel only feeds workers and is not healthy for them or the queen, brood end up rotting. If you're smart (And judging from these comments...), then you will replace the gel with damp soil. That way, you can keep your ants without them dying a premature death.

  • I WANT IT! :(

  • This is kind of like me in Minecraft xD

  • What the hell is going on at the bottom of the glass at 0:30 ?? Some kind of Ant gang-bang??

  • lmao, shake it so they have to start over =)

  • They're like Lemmings!

  • It is very cute and interesting to watch an ant farm, until the glass breaks and the army starts to overtake you room. And your pants.

  • Hey, genius idea!!! Never would've thought of time lapsing an ant farm! May I recommend recording both sides of the ant farm, and then presenting it in a split- screen?

  • Hey i just got one of those and how do collect alot of ants without buying them?

  • ant like.. omfg we trapp! lets digg ´n shit.. ^^

    LOL

  • WTF is that blue thing? ._.

  • @sparkster7744 toothpaste flavored jello of course!

  • the farm is good for some days, but you should take the gel away and use sand or earth....with a arena for trash and to feed them...i have got some Camponotus ligniperda and lots of Lasius niger...

  • i bought form a mall

  • my dreamswould be crushed when i was little, theyd always die

  • I had one of those sets, but then the ants died when they ran out of food. :'( It was fun while it lasted though!

    i laughed :)

  • "G@dD@mnit Margaret your digging the wrong way!!!"

  • how long did it take them to do that?

  • @crazycoocooboy200 10 days, as it said in the description.

  • @crazycoocooboy200 It took them 41 seconds duh

  • @GhettoDweebs no dumbass it took them ten days i thought you could see them moving to fast for it to take 41 seconds

  • @crazycoocooboy200 I was being sarcastic i know ants cant dig that fast unless chuck norris touched them

  • These are japanese ants, thats how they dug out the caves in iwo jima

  • @pigsrockmyak47 HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAAHHAHAHAHAH­AHAHAHAHAHAHAAHHAAHAHAHAH

  • @pigsrockmyak47 haahahahahahahaha

  • gross

  • I need help! When I get some ants in my antquarium, in a few hours they are gone, I reckon they get away from the air holes, and they are the biggest ants we have here (Bulgaria) ?! I wasted my money for nothing or what?

  • @guzotak No, if you get too small of ants, they will crawl through the holes. I have had that problem several times. You can either order ants from the internet, or try and find bigger ones. I used carpenter ants once, but they died.

  • @UberDeathTurtle OR you can Stick tape over the top and open it every month as ants  need so little Oxygen.

  • really cool stuff

  • kwl

  • the hardest part, is gathering the ants

  • this is cool

  • gay ant farm

  • do they have some type of system connecting the tunnels or are they just digging like crasy in random?

  • Dont buy it its worthless and gets your ants killed pretty soon, make a ytong nest.

  • what gel is that

  • has anyone tried using small ants? and does it work?

  • 0:28 - 0:31 was cool

  • To Tlapse,

    So what do you do after they finished all the gel?

  • thers ant nests in my backyard i wanna make an ant farm but what kind of gel is that??

  • @charliebell01 you shouldn´t use gel...use sand or earth...the gel is just for a few days...then they need buck oder something and honey-water (the most species) ....

  • wered u get the ant?

  • How do ya feed those guys ? O.o

  • just drop it in the tank and they'll come up and get it.

  • What do they eat..?

  • they are omnivores, they eat anything from grass to dead insects.

  • they eat the blue gel

  • THEY eatz sugarz!!! O.o  :D :)

  • they eat the blu gel

  • @imhackerlovely

    you don't, the gel is for digging and eating

  • @UnknownCPcl ahah ur comment made my day

  • I think that the "dirt" should be bright red. I can't see their work...

  • @KelseyBeePink they do sell those in red

  • I use too have the same thing! but then myne all died :/

  • It is normal. It is not the right way to have a ant farm at home.

  • ant works is shit i recommend the original ant farm for those who wants to keep ants

  • if you need to order ants message me and I will send you a link for a good place to order them

  • yknow the bad thing about those tanks is that you cant just go outside pick up some sand a refill it

  • I tried using that jelly thing once, they all died

  • I'm subbing. Your videos are to amazing.

    I used to have one of those! But it broke... :[

  • did he ants flow out? ant infestation in your home? xD

  • No, I never sent in the thing to get the ants.

  • How much did that ''Ant Work'' Thing cost?!? why do that when you can do the same thing with a plastic container

  • wohaa

  • where to buy gel for relace???? thanks

  • google it u lazy shit

  • ¿?¿?

  • lmao...leave the house xD

  • I Love Ants, They Work So Hard, Fight Viruses,Protect the Queen and Territory. Team Work, And Some And Do it Without Any Eyes!! It Hurt Me To Kill One!!! What Do I Do? They Invaded My House And Are Stealing My Cookies.... Help!!! I Dont Want To Hurt Them....

  • Well say goodbye to your cookies.

    heheheheh.

  • no eyes? fight viruses? wat da fuk r u talking about

  • let them write something :P

  • kewl

  • Gel is bad for studying ant behavior. They don't dig in it, they just eat it. So you won't get any chambers, just unplanned tunnels.

  • where do i get a queen ant in singapore can anybody sell me one??

  • u can catch it,im a singaporean i walk along in the streets of woodlands and i can see many ant nests and i took a walk in the park the ants said hi to me cos im good

  • i want an ant farm :S

  • why doesn't the blue stuff collapse?

  • Cus is gel and it sticks to the sides.

  • the side of the cup is holding the blue stuff up...

  • I tried but the queen did not survive the fuck part. Still rather enjoyable.

  • That looks so fun that I wish I was a ant.

  • If consider that civilization is something upon which we depend, not only for our sustenance but for our identity and knowledge also, and if you consider that we mostly live in huge cities connected by roads, which link myriad chambers for different activities, then in a way we are all ants.

    We don't notice really, so used to it, but we each lay a few grains of sand or dig part of a tunnel in our lives, it all adds up over generations to the biggest ant heap of all.

    your wish came true LOL

  • Indeed very deep and befitting, I was though thinking more about getting a taste of that jello LOL.

  • hahah you wish you was a ant ? :D

  • lol! Interesting wish :)

  • ugh... mine always die when i put them in...

  • Hairgel makes a horrible replacement for that jelly thingie.

  • u can buy this at brookstone

  • hehe i love ants :P

  • How do you keep your camera powered for 10 days? And how do you save a video that long?
