I really couldn't endure boredom, so I decided to go to Queensbay with my little cousin to spend our lovely evening. After wandering a few rounds in the huge mall, we stopped in front of a shop, located on third floor. I can't really remember the shop's name. Actually It's all bout massaging. Alright, a small piece of advertisement attracted me. Oh, fish spa! Looked new to me, so I went in. I paid only 19 bucks for a complete fish spa.
It's a small pool. All you have to do is put your legs into the water, relax and feed the hungry fish with your dead skin.
Love the decorations in the shop. Once you put your legs into the water, you'll get a feeling like, it's really tickling and itchy. After awhile, your legs will definitely be surrounded by whole group of fish. 30 minutes of fish spa, costs 38 bucks for an adult. But if you're a student, the price is only 19 bucks. Children under 12 are absolutely free.
The fish is commonly called Doctor Fish. Doctor fish is the name given to two species of fish: Garra rufa and Cyprinion macrostomus. Other nicknames include nibble fish, kangal fish, and doctorfishen; in non-medical contexts, Garra rufa is called the reddish log sucker. They live and breed in the outdoor pools of some Turkish Spa where they feed on the skin of patients with psoriasis. The fish are like combfishes in that they only consume the affected and dead areas of the skin, leaving the healthy skin to grow, with the outdoor location of the treatment bringing beneficial effects.

Seriously, that time I was like 'OMFG what are they (the fish) going to do to me?' It was really tickling! Was like, lots of worms wriggled around my legs.
The quality of the pictures is really lousy. Seriously I cannot expect too much from a 2.0 megapixels camera phone >.<
