I think good idea for relaxing when reading MFK posts everyday, to be soaking inside special fish body scrub therapy tank, ie, have fish sucking away body sweat and grime, clean away dead skin and scratch itchy body parts.

So far, I think use concrete tank (no need for glass really, unless have pornstar body), tiled inside, maybe 8 ft x 4 ft x 4 ft (need space for fish to move even after submerging body, and need height to prevent water spillage after submerging body into water). Probably need extreme filtration because of bioload as too easy to leak ammonia when reading posts on MFK.

Which fish species suitable to provide exfoliation / body scrub therapy (please not say piranha)? Highest suitable water temperature (prefer warmer water as more relaxing, provided fish can tolerate heat)? Filtration suggestions (prefer peace and quiet)? Any other suggestions and advice very much welcomed!

Thank you,
Kuji.

I like it!

For filtration/aeration...might I suggest a large wall waterfall? I'm thinking like a glass sheet with the water flowing down both sides, into a big tub of bio balls/plants. Like some vines and such- they'll like the ammonia!
 
What about a hot tub or jacuzzi for the tank? most have a thermostat to set a correct temp for the fish, large filters, and you'd have to find a gentler way to aerate than the jets... but it's almiost perfect.
 
be sure to use loads of fresh carbon in your filter. keep in mind fish dont like cologne, deodorant, shampoo or anything else you use to get clean. just be sure to take a shower before and after or rish losing all your stock.
 
a hot mermaid would be the best choice :naughty:
