For reference, we used to supply 40-50 black worker ants (lasius niger) in one of our magnifier bowls, identical to the one included in our Ant World. This didn't include a Queen, but many of the links above do include one.
Having a queen means your colony can grow and repopulate over time. You may need to remove the green 'mountain' piece of the Ant World so that the queen can fit through it.
Beyond this we recommend following your queen ant supplier's advice, as we have little experience with queen ants.
