Smallest working aquarium


This is  the world's smallest working aquarium - which holds just two tea spoons of water.The miniature wonder, which is made of glass and measures just 30mm wide by 24mm high and 14mm deep, can be held in the palm of your hand. And it is so small there is only room for these tiny zebra fish.The extraordinary creation is the latest by Anatoly Konenko, from Omsk, in Russia.
Working with a microscope, he has built up quite a collection of miniature art over the years.
Other creations include a caravan of 12 miniature camels inside the eye of a needle, which measures an incredible 0.25mm.Mr Konenko has also made an incredibly detailed ship in a bottle, which stands at just 0.25mm high, and a pair of shoes smaller than a matchstick.
Some of his creations are worth as much as 50,000 euros, £44,000.
