I've heard that ants can get all the protein they need from fish food. Is this true? I wouldn't really want to kill insects to feed them to the ants. I would, by the way, also give them seeds and things like that for protein, as well as sweet things for sugar.
Thanks,

Just have to make sure the food is served at 5-8 degrees warmer than ambient air temp. This allows the ants a better chance of locating the food.
While they may seem to enjoy sugar, like most other pets, it is not good for them and puts them outside of their macros.
