So you have 17 upgradeable and 7 weak, close to useless workers to work in the nest, then for me persoanlly, I've made 2x15 workers in my formicarium just in case along with 2x24 mele and 2x24 mortar ants. I've actually came to a conclusion, that 24 units worth of sections separated by roads are the best way of distributing units, looks good, easy to organize, queen breeding spot can be surrounded with workers to make it up to 24, (simmetry reached too).
Then you have some bigger ants running around the hive at all times and the larva gets passed out faster allowing for easier large hives to function, especially during battles.
