6 taboos for keeping fish at home

Introduction: Nowadays, many people raise fish at home, which can not only decorate the house, but also help to cultivate one's character and have a certain ornamental value. In Feng Shui, raising fish is also a science. You can't just raise fish casually. You need to pay attention to some Feng Shui matters and taboos. What are the Feng Shui issues when raising fish at home? Let’s take a look at it from the perspective of fish tank Feng Shui.

1. What kind of house is suitable for fish farming?

A house with bright light and dry interior is suitable for raising fish. Raising fish is for the purpose of viewing and adding a little vitality to home life. In terms of home feng shui, the water used for raising fish is mainly used to stimulate the aura. The focus is not on the fish, but on the water. If the light is bright, it means that the house has good lighting and the indoor aura tends to be hot, while the water used for raising fish is cold. This makes it easy to balance the cold and heat and neutralize the indoor aura. The people living in the house will be more comfortable, and their body and mind will get a good rest, and their luck will naturally improve. Similarly, if the indoor environment is dry, it is a manifestation of an imbalance in the aura. The water used to raise fish is wet and can evaporate into the air, moistening the dry aura, achieving a neutral state and forming a good feng shui aura. If the indoor aura is balanced, the people living there will be healthy both physically and mentally, have a harmonious family and a successful career.

2. What kind of people are suitable for fish farming?

Fish cannot live without water, so people who are suitable for raising fish must be those whose horoscopes and five elements like water. People born in summer have strong fire element in their horoscope and are relatively short of water, so they are most suitable for raising fish, especially those who have strong fire element and earth element in their horoscope, who are most suitable for raising fish. Another type is those whose useful element in the eight characters is water, and they can also raise fish. How do you know if your useful god is water? You can discover this rule by summarizing your own luck. For example, you tend to have better luck in the second half of the year, and worse luck in the first half, especially in the summer when your luck is the worst. This situation often means that you like water in the five elements. On the contrary, if you were born in winter, or your five elements do not like water, you are not suitable to raise fish.

3. Choice of fish tank

As for the material of fish tanks, glass is the main material on the market. There are not many choices. The main thing to pay attention to is the shape of the fish tank. Generally, it is best to choose square and round shapes. The square shape is mainly rectangular, and the round shape is mainly circle. It is not recommended to use ellipse. If the other shapes are very small, you can choose something more alternative. It is just a small embellishment and will not have a big impact. If it is a large fish tank, don’t choose weird shapes. As for the larger fish tanks, the colors of the cabinet-like supports underneath should be mainly dark or neutral colors, not too bright, and not red.

4. The location of fish farming

The most common method is to raise fish in the southwest corner of the house, but this method is not particularly suitable for every family, because most of the current urban residences are two households per floor with east-west doors. In this case, most of the southwest corners are set up as bedrooms, and not necessarily the living room. This direction should be chosen according to actual conditions. In addition to the southwest direction, the north, east and southeast directions can also be used to place fish tanks.

Another method is to place the fish tank at the entrance and use it as a screen. It not only has ornamental value, but also can make the aura of the door come in twists and turns, turning ruthless into affectionate, killing two birds with one stone.

The third method is to choose the brightest place in the room to place the fish tank, so that you can achieve a balanced aura in the room. If you place the fish tank according to the first and second methods, but the light is too dim, you still won’t be able to stimulate good luck. Not only will you not get rich, you will also lose money and become sick. Therefore, if your fish tank is already placed in a place with poor lighting, it is best to install a few small lights that stay on all the time, which will improve the situation.

5. Why do some fish always die?

This question is often asked. Those who ask this question basically have a preconceived notion that the fish was killed by its own evil. There are quite a lot of people who hold this idea. In fact, there are many reasons why fish will die. People who are not suitable for fish farming have only mentioned a part of the reasons, which are not the main reasons. If you don’t believe it, you can try to rent a fish pond of hundreds of acres to see if you can kill the fish. Usually, people who kill their fish keep them in small fish tanks without oxygen and in poorly ventilated rooms. Fish raised in ponds need oxygen, so keeping fish in fish tanks does not provide a good natural living environment. If you don't change the water regularly, the ventilation is poor, there is not enough oxygen or light, and the fish food you feed may not be what the fish likes, then with all these factors added up, it is very easy for the fish to die. Of course, Feng Shui also has something called a dead corner, which is a corner that is not exposed to sunlight and is basically not used. There is just an empty space, and you put the fish there. The aura of this dead corner is the worst in the house, and basically the flowers and fish will die if you raise them there.

6. The color and quantity of fish

As mentioned before, in terms of Feng Shui, raising fish is mainly for the water used to raise the fish, so as long as you don’t raise fish that will eat people, you can raise general ornamental fish as long as you like. As for the quantity and color, there is no need to worry too much. Because no matter what color the fish is, what elements it belongs to, or how many elements it has, there is one thing in common, that is, the fish as a whole is of the water element, and this is unchanging. Unless it involves a special function, don't get too hung up on it.
