Fish Pedicure in Dublin - anywhere still do it?

bellz_x · 2018-02-10 03:18:57

I'm curious to know if there's any places in Dublin that still do the Fish Pedicures? I had it done years ago but haven't been back to the place in a long time! Anyone know?

Think most of them shutdown over health concerns re transmission of diseases via the fishes...

As well as concerns over not properly cleaning the water.

The fish were kept in filthy tanks and weren't fed properly so they'd be hungry enough to do the pedicures.
