Camponotus micans – elegance in the formicarium

If you are looking for a species of ant that combines exotic origins with a calm temperament and unique appearance, Camponotus micans is the perfect choice. These ants originate from southern Europe and captivate with their subtle, metallic sheen of their armour, reminiscent of a slightly iridescent surface. Their majestic queen and distinct soldiers can make a huge impression on both novice and experienced breeders.

Advantages of breeding Camponotus micans

Metallic sheen – their bodies shimmer in the light, which distinguishes them from many other Camponotus species.
Gentle temperament – these are calm ants that rarely show aggression and are easy to observe.
A distinct caste of soldier ants – large, massive workers with strong mandibles look truly impressive.
No need for hibernation – their tropical origin means they can be grown all year round without interruption.
Stable colony – Camponotus micans develop moderately quickly but steadily, which gives you plenty of time for learning and observation.

Breeding requirements for Camponotus micans

Camponotus micans is a species native to warm regions of Europe, which is why they thrive best at temperatures of 24–28°C and with fairly high nest humidity (60–80%). They tolerate acrylic and 3D formicaria well, preferably with a section that maintains humidity – e.g. a humidified reservoir or cork insert.

The arena should be equipped with natural elements – sand, bark, dry grass. Ants like to explore, although they move quite calmly and do not tend to exhibit the typical characteristics of ‘runaways’.

For whom?

For those who appreciate aesthetics and the unique appearance of ants
For novice breeders looking for an easy-to-handle species.
For collectors of Camponotus species of tropical origin
For anyone who wants to have something unusual in their formicarium, but not too demanding.

Why choose Camponotus micans?

Because these ants combine beauty, tranquillity and exotic origins. Observing their colony is a real pleasure – both for the eye and for enthusiasts who want to develop their knowledge of breeding. Their presence in your formicarium will not only be decorative, but also a wonderful opportunity for peaceful, daily observation.

Don’t miss out – Camponotus micans is a beauty that won’t run away from the arena!
