These medium sized sugar ants are very rewarding to keep having very pretty workers having golden abdomen, they grow quickly (for Camponotus at least) there diet is very simple eating manly sugars (when they are a small colony at least) e.g. honey, sugar water. They will also require a small amount of protein e.g. crickets, cockroaches, meal worms.

Warning: these ants are very very fast and are good at eating escaping.
