They can really survive in a refrigerator? How low can the temperature go?

The minimum possible temperature is 3 degrees Celsius, and the maximum 12 degrees Celsius. Don't put them outside otherwise they will freeze. Naturally ants burrow underground, so they avoid the freeze at the surface, but ants that are contained in test tubes or formicaria are obviously not going to go underground.
