Cement board for fishroom

Hello all I'm inprocess of building fish room, I have my 10x12 room framed out. I was wondering if its recommended to use cement board in it with the high moisture area.

I plan to use foil faced T-13 insulation and have recently been considering puting a vapor barrier over the insulation too.

I will be putting ceramic tiles over cement board.

I used Denshield on the inside and outside walls and ceiling of my fishroom. overkill but well worth the investment
