Maybe the issue is that the cockroaches don't really have anything interesting in their habitat to live up to in a way they were just placed in their new homes and boom here comes hell. I'm not sure if I'm explaining myself correctly.
Na they chose their own fate in a way. They could have lived happily ever after in their peaceful temple but they ventured out into the tubes to Hell. What was the reason? Curiousity? Greed for more food, real estate? Arguments with the Temple settlement?
@@Swanicorn curiousity in the wild you have to know your ways that's how some insects live and plus they didn't even know that it was some kind of trap lol
@@Luksaee exactly, so if the roaches could just escape out of the sky, it wouldn't be natural, they need to be trapped so they can be hunted just like in nature
Honestly, you just need a way to 'turn it off' cause eventually the amount of roaches breeding won't be enough to sustain the ants. So I would say only open the floodgates every once in a few days or so. Personal non-professional opinion.
Its ethical because both benefit from it. I will let it be known. I hate bugs. All bugs. But I also won't kill them just to kill them unless they're in my home unwelomed
I wonder if ants can develop poisons from sources they farm.....sort of like with the fungus but poisonous; sort of like a NUDIBRANCH AND SEA CUCUMBERS do in the oceans, and some species of caterpillars.
@@itsamehmauri2657 Learning from mistakes. Nobody asked for your opinion on who cares. I care, because language is a beautiful medium and because of people like you who don't care it's dying.
@@anthonyr9828 weellllll... did you know you can cut the head off a roach and it will survive for up to 6 months, and smashing them still doesn't kill them
Awesome set up bro and great idea. Gives both sides an equal chance for peace. Will be interesting to see if the roaches learn to stop going into the tube.
@Blue Raptor kk I'm pretty sure this comment wasn't about me talking about the Chinese starting a global crisis but alright but I know it was about humor and I see you don't have a sense of humor, flake
Definitely a "Yes, this is fine" from me. You're making sure the roaches are cared for the same as the ants, and it's just a matter of the roaches happening to fall in, then it's no different than if they were in the wild and the roaches happened to stumble upon the colony.
I really like this idea with the feeder roaches. It's not like you are forcing the roaches into the "tubes of natural selection " aka "tubes of death ". You are offering the sacrifices a good life, well, better than they would get out in the wild. They dont have to hunt for their food and the only danger they face is the tubes. They wont have the constant stress of looking out for danger. We all know the cockroaches will be well cared for by you with all the food they could eat and the food would be good food also. I know this bothers you and I'm sorry but thank you for doing this.
I think it's ethical, it is of course a natural process. And you're giving the roaches nutrients and letting them live normal lives as long as they don't travel through the tunnels. But when they do travel through the tunnels, the ants benefit and hunt. Benefits for both, like you said. I'd call the colony the EncROACHment
I think you should call the cockroach colony "Geonosis" which is a planet from star wars that has huge alien bugs, and the buildings look like the temple. Edit: Okay wow thanks for the likes!
ELLIOT HUANG all it takes is a little creativity, plus, it doesn’t have to be in the tube- it can be in the opening of the tube like a latch of some sort.
My fiancé and I had the same thought, controlling how many roaches enter the tube of death. The first shot of the roaches, they were so close together that they were bumping into one another. The day after the bloodbath, it didn’t even look like there were any on the coco fiber.
Agreed. I don’t think it’s unethical, as feeding your pets shouldn’t be seen as unethical. I know in the snake hobby F/T is ethic, but sometimes that fails. I hope AC doesn’t worry too much about good/bad rather than “what’s best for my pets.”
Yeah, agreed. Plugging the tubes will also help to keep the Phoenix Empire from growing too fast, and allow the roaches time to repopulate before the plug is removed again.
Ants are actually advanced creatures, especially for insects. They have: •language through antennas and pheromones •build complex tunnels and chambers with intent/purpose •adapt and learn from their environment to better their ability to traverse for food or resources •have many roles, such as worker, solder, nurse, farmer (which I will address last) •work together to make bridges and even rafts out of their own bodies •deploy strategies and even smart tactics against prey (even using dirt to neutralize the defensive slim effect of slugs) and rival armies (even the use of intentionally flanking) •engage in agriculture by using aphids as cattle for honeydew (even moving aphids to better parts of plants or trees) or growing and managing special fungus through cut leaves in certain chambers.
I'd disagree with that one. I'm cool with both options but if you drop em in or place a tube that leads to their certain death are both random kinda selections. It causes equal amounts of suffering the difference is you don't feel as bad cause you gave them an option they are not aware of. The tube explorers want to die just as much as the ones you throw in. But as I said I don't mind it one way or another
What will define how viable of a strategy this is rests solely on the amount of roaches lost per feeding, if you lose too many roaches too quickly the numbers could dwindle down and impact both the fire ant colony and the roaches, so if this setup can mantain a considerable number of roaches safe and breeding while feeling some of them to the empire, thats wondeful! But be mindful that the ands might take a much bigger bite that we expect and then our temple would begin to empty. Kudos to you for this amazing idea ! Ant love forever :D
Hi, I really liked this idea, and think it's a great concept. I just think you shouldn't leave it "working" 24/7, I think you should block the holes with cotton (or the actual plug that comes with the AC Outworld) for most of the time, and like once a day, or twice at most unplug it and let them in. At least in the beggining, untill you can be absolutelly sure that they can reproduce faster then they die. I just think that because although there's so many of them, when they were falling that was in so big groups at a time, and kept going, that I'm afraid the rate is to big for them to be able to reproduce in time. I don't know, maybe I'm totally wrong, that was just the feelling I got from the footage... Keep up the good work, love your channel!
The first thing I want to tell you is that I really like what you do, the videos are interesting and worked. Thank you for that ! I've got an idea to make sure the cockroach colony is thriving, maybe you could make sure the death tubes are only accessible at certain times of the day, that way you make sure they don't all fall into the hell's kitchen.
I agree this is a wonderful idea, but there needs to be some sort of valve system to prevent all the baby roaches from entering "Hells Kitchen" allow them to grow to adult size and possibly not even fit down the tube. Those adults can repopulate the feed stock thus keeping the ants fed long term.
I feel they're too fast in falling in, could you add a valve to stop them on a timer so they have time to regroup? You don't want the ants to get too reliant on that many roaches as well
Çentoé no I think it’s just they had to learn that way was dangerous, plus it was pretty heavily packed in the roach enclosure when he first dropped themin I thought it was way too much
That's because the ants weren't aware that there was a roach between them yet. They were confused, like: "Oh, wait, did you see that, bro? What is that? It's not one of us, I'm sure! Let's taste it"
It's not like he let them walk around his home lol I breed Dubia Roaches, Mealworms and Superworms. Everyone is always so intrested in the meal and superworms but the moment I say roach they freak out lol once again it's not like I'm living side but side with them. They're in an enclosure and can't escape.
Yeah, just keep the system. My suggestion was to add a plug so that when it's not feeding time you can keep the roaches from jumping into Hell's Kitchen and ensure there's enough roach population to keep things running.

@@interius8635 LOL 😂
Ants are actually advanced creatures, especially for insects.
They have:
•language through antennas and pheromones
•build complex tunnels and chambers with intent/purpose
•adapt and learn from their environment to better their ability to traverse for food or resources
•have many roles, such as worker, solder, nurse, farmer (which I will address last)
•work together to make bridges and even rafts out of their own bodies
•deploy strategies and even smart tactics against prey (even using dirt to neutralize the defensive slim effect of slugs) and rival armies (even the use of intentionally flanking)
•engage in agriculture by using aphids as cattle for honeydew (even moving aphids to better parts of plants or trees) or growing and managing special fungus through cut leaves in certain chambers.
Your avatar is perfect for this.

“Where we landin’ boys?”
I am reminded of a quote from Family Guy: "That little thing just got ate! Damn nature, you scary!".
Or Futurama: "Nature is horrible and teaches us nothing."
You know you found a pure and innocent soul when he questions his own morals after feeding cockroaches to his ants
Or naive and incompetent.
or someone who thinks animals and humans would have a common set of ethics...
I agree. But it's a good idea to have the new setup 😁
I feel they're too fast in falling in, could you add a valve to stop them on a timer so they have time to regroup? You don't want the ants to get too reliant on that many roaches as well
Near the end of the video you can tell the roaches have learned to stay out of the tunnel
hasogon Or their population is too low, and they're recovering
I love the timer idea. Several mentioned gates but your timer idea is an especially nice touch.
I read ur comment late... Touche
Çentoé no I think it’s just they had to learn that way was dangerous, plus it was pretty heavily packed in the roach enclosure when he first dropped themin I thought it was way too much

-Dude are you talking about me or ants cause that line is slowly blurring
Na has was on about me
Wish this was a Netflix series
I know
Yay
Ants Canada: This is gonna be gross.
Me: That's why I'm here
Netflix series are mostly bad, this one isn't
@@1900OP facts
Suggestion: PHOENIX FACTORY
I JUST FELT LIKE IT
My ideas:
Hell's Prey
Temple of the Roach
Roach Shrine / Shrine of the Roaches
The Suicide Roaches
Yesssss everyone like so he sees
Suicide roaches sounds to dark
Lol totally! Mine was sacred meal but yours is way better!
YESSSSSS
That first roach was a brave creature. And bless your kindred soul for caring about an ethics argument for roaches.
Me: I hate cockroaches I'm gonna enjoy seeing them get eaten.
Me watching this: YAMERO!!!!!
lol
Ahahaha 🤣🤣
Hahaha XD.
Yameteee
😂
For a name I would suggest ”Children Of Tinder” because they are like food for the fire
Thats a good one
I agree with this one
Fancy
I had a couple children from tinder, that's why I moved 🤷♂️
Nice name
The roaches that went back must’ve been like RUNNN THERES ANTS KILLING OUR FRIENDS
And the other were like lemme see then fell in
lol
lol
lol
lol
olo
That self feeding system is so cool. Such a good idea. 10/10. Would recommend you use this.
I would call it "The Ruins of Shelfordella" or " Hells Dinner"
Hell's Dinner is really good
What ‘bout the PREYdators
the first roach earned my respect
No doubt! Lived the longest to probably 😂
Jack Roacher
Barry Sanders = 1st Roach lol..
@@muesli_snipes underrated
That's because the ants weren't aware that there was a roach between them yet. They were confused, like: "Oh, wait, did you see that, bro? What is that? It's not one of us, I'm sure! Let's taste it"
Every time he says Hell's Kitchen i just imagine Gordon swearing at those ants
Same
Also same

Uhm
My son likes your channel. He loves ants and learns a lot about them thanks to your videos! Greetings
Roach: Where we dropping?
Other Roach: *T o o u r d e a t h*
Till death do us part *r i g h t ?*
Maybe block the feed tubes so roaches won’t constantly decline.
Maybe it should be named “The Herd” since they’re like cattle
Interesting, a bit violent for this channel though, maybe the Gazelles since they’re so quick
It could be "the cattle". If you don't like that, it could be "the swarm".
Ooo I like the swarm! It’s needs an adjective tho, maybe the leaping swarm or something like that
How about the speedy swarm.
Spencer Weijer your right
As a person who grew up in fire ant territory, I have to ask; what kind of monster keeps a colony of fire ants in their house?
It’s like the hunger games but with roach kids lol
Yep
Poor roaches :( there still kids
lmao
HOLD UP
In the book rhe unspoken rule was not eating other players!
hOw dArE yOu sAy sOmEThInG iNaCcURaTe
I honestly would love it if you called the Roach Temple "Joe's Apartment"
THAT''S MY VOTE! :D
Lets do it
There's no better name than this
A vote to you
this needs to happen
Moral of the story: if you have safety, water, food, shelter and friends, STAY HOME!!!
Cockroach:(looking down the tube) "NEW FRIENDS"
Ants: "NEW FOOD
I got Vietnam flashbacks of when the ants ate a roach giving birth
Oh god no don’t remind me
Cockroach name should definitely be “The Fallen Angels”, it’s a nod at their role in feeding the Phoenix empire AND their decent into Hell’s Kitchen
That's a good name
I see what you did there..
Or how about falling angels because they are falling into Hell's Kitchen?
YES That is perfect 👌
I like
You actually let literally hundreds of roaches in your home. Dude you actually ARE crazy.
dang he still favoriting comments
... the neighbor gave it
It's not like he let them walk around his home lol I breed Dubia Roaches, Mealworms and Superworms. Everyone is always so intrested in the meal and superworms but the moment I say roach they freak out lol once again it's not like I'm living side but side with them. They're in an enclosure and can't escape.
His not crazy he's training them to hunt so if he will release them they already know how to hunt
Is he actually?
I don't keep up w/the channel so I don't know if you have kept the setup but it was really cool imo.
Roach: *finds hells kitchen*
Ants: So you have chosen, death
True
Indeed!
Some names for the Roaches place:
Hell's Pantry
Temple of Feeders
Prey's Paradise
Jedi Temple of Younglings
Hell's Pantry!!
I second hells pantry
yeah! hell's pantry
Hells pantry
Hells pantry
Yeah, just keep the system. My suggestion was to add a plug so that when it's not feeding time you can keep the roaches from jumping into Hell's Kitchen and ensure there's enough roach population to keep things running.
Adolf95 yep because they might be wiped out fast
Cockroach:ahhhh they stinging me help
Ants:Yay its raining mc nuggets hey guys theres mc nuggets here
