Thanks Paul however the following line from the story puts it into context.

 

"The HPA and Health Protection Scotland is currently unaware of any cases of infection associated with the use of the fish spas pedicures in the UK

Strange that no one has commented about the doctor fish's health so far!? :allright

Often hundreds or even thousands of fish are forced to live in a small overpopulated tanks without any more food than the dryed dead skin of tourists! :mellow:

Many fishes die of malnutrition and deseases! :unsure:

Originally they used fish from the Middle Eastern and Turkey a species called Garra rufa, but today you'll see lots of different species used, they'll more or less just throw in anything that will nibble on your feet when they are hungry! :allright

In Thailand they predominantly use their own species Gyrinocheilus aymonieri (Chinese Algae eater) a wellknown aquariumfish, that in nature lives in fast streams and eats algae from rocks and stones.

The original spafish the Garra rufa that is used in openair natural spas in Turkey, are said to be experts in cleaning the skin of people suffering from psoriasis, but I doubt any of the other fish used have any positive medical benefits to your skin at all! :grin

Just another crazy human invention to use innocent animals to make money! :grin

Its the latest craze here in the UK

 

Its funny to walk through shopping malls and see middle aged matronly women with their bare feet dangling in an aquarium while small fish munch away on the dead skin on their ugly white feet God makes me feel sick at the thought

 

Maybe they will invent a fish that can give you a blow job Now thats a thought bet it would be cheaper than Lolitas :thumbup

 

What does Villa or Mirky think lol :allright

Anybody see this in the states?

 

 

They had a few that opened up but the health department shut them down pretty quick. It's my understanding that most States have banned them due to health concerns. I must admit that when I was in Pattaya last time, I tried the dip and thought they did a pretty good job!

Re puffer fish at least I think its one :whistling:

 

Its bad enough seeing midlle aged women with their feet dangling in an aquarium with tiny fish munching on their feet

 

But it would be a nightmare to walk through a shopping mall such as the Bullring in Birmingham and see Villa with his dong dangling in an aquarium and the fish giving him a BBBJ :drunk
