Do Not Mess With Fish 271,

and you thought fish were fun!


well these ones certainly are, Sweet Fishs Café is a unique venue in the Thai city of Khanom, where people can walk through ankle-deep water populated with dozens of koi fish, photograph Sweet Fishs Café/Facebook,

the unusual venue is part of the Ton Than Resort and Spa, a popular tourist resort with a history of over 14 years. Its owner, Yosaphol Jitmung, told MGR Online that Sweet Fishs Café was designed as a “tourist magnet” to attract visitors during this difficult Covid-19 pandemic, to that end, the idea has proven a massive success, one of the biggest challenges of implementing this concept was the filtration system. Four large pool filters work 24 hours a day, and staff changes the water every morning, before opening hours, and in the evening after the last patron leaves,

visitors are asked to take off their shows and disinfect their feet before entering the café, as well as not to touch the fish or disturb them in any way, Koi fish make up the majority of fish Sweet Fishs Café, because they are eye-catching and generally not afraid of people, but there are also “doctor fish” that nibble on dead skin, as well as other species, Yosaphol Jitmung said that he invested around 400,000 baht ($12,000) in Sweet Fishs Café so far, noting that the structure was already a part of the resort, and most of the investment went into the fish and the filtration system, what a neat idea to help his business out of a crisis.
