ABSTRACT:
A soil-less habitat medium, especially for ants, allows the sustained viability of an ant or ant colony without the provision of additional nutrients. The medium comprises the combination of a culture medium and a chemical agent to reduce or prevent microbial contamination of the culture medium. The medium is preferably in the form of a clear or tinted gel, and allows the ants to be observed throughout the medium. The medium is of particular value for use in an ant vivaria.
