Sorry for my disregard, but I didn't notice this thread was still active

Thanks all for comments, I'll try to answer on your questions;

kenny1tothe6: when the fish grown up....how are you going to get them out w\out destroying the aquascape?

The fishes were there just for fun. I took them out after I took the picture. About getting them out...It's quite easy, just drown the tank into bigger fry tank

gotcheaprice: Man, those "driftwood" look great! Where did you get them? I don't really see twigs shaped that way here. Or did you break off a bunch?

Those twigs are actually root viens

erijnal: The only thing that looks unnatural are the super-thin twigs on top of the moss on the left side of the tank. Or is that thread?

Yes, that's cotton thread.

papillon: if you don't mind, how do maintain this ultra nano tank? fertz regimen, water change, light hours etc... by the way how old is this tank?

There is no manitenance any more, I used to do daily water change with syringe for dosing ferts. Nowadays it's lost somewere in the main tank

Default Hey Rastaman!

A quick question here for Rastaman, whenever you get the chance to answer -

Is there any reason you prefer acrylic and not glass for these tanks? Just curious.

thanks!
