Fungi, as decomoposers, don't rely on sunlight for growth, so they might thrive in conditions intolerable to photosynthesizers.
Farmed by antine ants. New queens take a little piece when they branch off.
Ant eggs would be covered by fungi if they were not constantly re-covered with antibiotic saliva (by queens first then I think by others as well), they would rot.
