Many people like to raise fish, thinking that raising a fish at home can help improve their fortune. The Feng Shui of fish tanks can indeed help attract wealth at home, but not all species can do so. Feng Shui masters have summarized for us several types of fish that can help attract wealth. Let’s take a look at them below. At home we usually use a small fish tank, so we can only equip it with small fish, but the ones that really work are medium and large tropical fish. Let's take a look at what kinds of fish there are.1. ArowanaBefore talking about the arowana, we must first introduce the most popular flower arowana. This is a new type of fish species that was bred by people in Southeast Asia and Taiwan through artificial hybridization and selection of American cichlids from various regions. It has shiny patterns all over its body, a high forehead, and changeable body color. It is very friendly and has a temperament like a puppy in the water. Basically, it was selected and bred according to the aesthetic standards of happiness, wealth, and longevity. It's just that the more auspicious name of longevity fish was first used by the edible fish tilapia from Africa, so the arowana still retains its original name.However, due to different origins and hybrid varieties, arowana has different names. But no matter what, it is a species of fish bred completely in accordance with the aesthetic habits of Asians. Therefore, if you want to raise Feng Shui fish, it is not wrong to choose it. But precisely because Arowana is an artificial fish species, unlike the long breeding history of Koi and goldfish, the rapid breeding in just a few decades, and even inbreeding, has made the physique of this fish species very poor. Therefore, it can only survive under the conditions of artificial compound feed. It is almost impossible to expect this fish to live a long life at present, which also greatly reduces its role as a Feng Shui fish. 2. Blood ParrotWhile breeding arowana, an inadvertent hybridization led to the birth of another type of artificial ornamental fish that is very popular among Chinese people. Due to the different body shapes of the parents, the hybridization produced a deformed, triangular smiling mouth that could not be closed. Coupled with its short body and feeding of artificial color-enhancing feed, this is the creation of the "blood parrot". "Blood Parrot" is a hybrid fish species similar to a mule. Judging from its body color, although it is very good-looking and pleasing to the eye, this body color and shape are actually not beneficial from the perspective of Feng Shui. However, "Blood Parrot" also has another characteristic. Because it is a hybrid fish species like Arowana, the mother plant still retains a certain reproductive ability.3. Lohan fishAnyone who has raised arowana knows that arowana are bred according to the standard of eliminating female fish and retaining male fish. Although arowana are very close to humans, they are very hostile to fish. However, "blood parrots" do not distinguish between male and female. In the process of mixed breeding, they often cause accidental mixes. This is actually a helpless combination. Therefore, if your fish tank can meet the medium and large standards, you can consider arowana, or "blood parrot", but this is only a short-term entertainment. If you want a true Feng Shui fish, then the dragon fish is the orthodox one.Arowana is the third type of Feng Shui fish after Koi and goldfish. It is a truly native ancient fish species. It is currently distributed in three major regions in the world, mainly the silver arowana in the Amazon basin, the star arowana in Australia, the black arowana in Africa and the Asian arowana in Southeast Asia. Among them, the Asian arowana has been bred for many generations and has formed different varieties of high-end arowana such as blue dragon, gem dragon, red dragon, chili red dragon, etc. The authentic dragon fish are usually those from Southeast Asia. All dragon fish have a body shape like a belt or a knife, whiskers and eyes, and their swimming posture is basically similar to that of the Chinese dragon. When the Chinese in Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan discovered this fish, they all believed that it could ward off evil and avoid disasters. It can even attract unexpected wealth, so the Arowana has long existed as a kind of Feng Shui fish that has been popular for a long time. However, it is huge in size, just like raising Koi. If you do not have an extra-large fish tank and powerful filtration, I personally recommend not to consider raising it casually. Because from a superstitious point of view, the Arowana is related to the luck of the owner. If the Arowana is well raised, it can attract wealth, but if it jumps out of the tank or dies, it means that the owner may be in trouble. This is the origin of Feng Shui fish. Raising a dragon fish alone is rather monotonous, so many people choose to raise them together, but mixed raising has resulted in many interesting things as follows. 4. Dragon's TongueDragon's Tongue: In the early years, the first South American cichlid that the Chinese paired with the Arowana was the Map Fish. Hong Kong people called it piglet fish. In fact, its habits are indeed more similar to those of piglets. It is greedy and lazy. The Map Fish is a very mature domesticated fish species. After years of cultivation, it has changed the body color of its origin. It often appears in red and yellow, or red and black. When paired with the Arowana, it is called "Dragon's Tongue", or "Double Dragons Playing with Pearls". However, the Map Fish also has a disadvantage. It eats Dorado, which undoubtedly adds more filtration pressure to the water pump originally used to raise dragons.4. CharacinDragon and Phoenix: With the deepening of mixed farming, the Chinese chose another herbivorous fatty carp, the flying phoenix fish, as a match, taking its meaning of "dragon flying and phoenix dancing" and "dragon and phoenix bringing good luck". As the number of fish species expanded, another fish with a tail like the American striped flag, also known as sailfish, also entered the ranks of mixed farming. However, because these two fish species were difficult to breed, the aquarium industry chose a two-line carp from Southeast Asia to replace the phoenix fish. Because it swims fast and is produced in Thailand, it is also called Thai crucian carp. After selection and breeding, many yellow varieties have appeared.5. Dragon and TigerSky Dragon and Earth Tiger: As the fish species in Southeast Asia continue to be added, the third tiger fish produced in Thailand has also entered the ranks of mixed farming. It is actually a fish species similar to China's mandarin fish, also known as osmanthus fish. Its habits are similar, but it has striped markings on its body, so it is also called Thai tiger. Because it also has its subspecies in Myanmar, it is also called nocturnal tiger. They are paired with arowana to form the so-called "Sky Dragon and Earth Tiger" mixed farming.6. The Complete Collection of Four SymbolsComplete Collection of Four Symbols: Due to the addition of "tiger fish" to "phoenix fish", arowana enthusiasts have become more and more extreme. In the early years, they chose an "Oceania pig-nosed turtle" from Australia to form the "Four Symbols Tank". The "pig-nosed turtle" is also called the "flying river turtle", but due to its difficult habits, a freshwater ray has been chosen to replace the "flying river turtle". It is also called "stingray" and is a high-end fish species created by mixing with arowana. The "Four Symbols Tank" consisting of arowana, tiger fish, phoenix fish and stingray is a manifestation of wealth, but it is actually not suitable for ordinary families.In fact, arowana is not a Feng Shui fish that is only suitable for the rich. In the arowana industry, as the breeding bottleneck was broken, the price of the most popular silver arowana at the time fell to the bottom. This American arowana, as a Feng Shui fish with a beautiful body, has always existed. The body of the Silver Arowana is more slender and graceful than the Asian Arowana. It was the most popular Arowana back then. However, the Silver Arowana still has its shortcomings. The Silver Arowana itself is longer, sometimes even up to one or two meters long. The most troublesome thing is that it likes to dive. This is the nature of the Silver Arowana, which has also caused many scenes of Arowana jumping out. 7. Bring in wealth and fortuneBringing in wealth and fortune: With the deepening of mixed breeding of dragon fish, another kind of fortune fish from the same region as the Asian dragon fish has entered the mixed breeding ranks. The real name of the fortune fish is the long-thread bass, also known as a warship. It is an omnivorous and herbivorous fish species. After domestication, an albino variety appeared, called the golden warship. Its sail-shaped body gives it an image of smooth sailing. The tank in which it is paired with the silver arowana is also called the "fortune-attracting tank."The above-mentioned fish species that can be raised together with arowana can actually be raised separately. They are all good choices when choosing Feng Shui fish. In short, whether it is arowana or a parrot, arowana or koi, for the working class, goldfish is actually the truly suitable family pet. But if you want to pay attention to Feng Shui, these types are actually good choices. |
