Fish are an important part of Chinese and Asian culture. No doubt youve seen many pieces of Chinese and Asian artwork that include goldfish or koi, and of course there are Asian water gardens that one can incorporate into ones own home that include these beautiful creatures.

So when employing the art and science of feng shui, many may wonder how they can use a feng shui fish tank in their own home. How is it introduced, and where should it be kept? And are there places where it should not be used as well?

A True Feng Shui Fish Tank is Not Always Big

If you think that a feng shui fish tank must necessarily be large, that's not really true. What feng shui wishes to incorporate is balance and simplicity. This means that if you try to incorporate a large fish tank into a small home or room, this will only lead to a more cluttered feeling, which is against feng shui principles.

Smaller aquariums will always do just fine, especially if they are in perfect balance to the room. Additionally, a true feng shui fish tank doesnt even need to be an aquarium at all. A small fishbowl with a just a goldfish or two, if properly maintained and displayed, can be quite sufficient.

This is probably good news to those who are on a budget and dont want to spend the hundreds of dollars necessary to purchase a large aquarium and then stock and maintain it.

Where to Place Your Feng Shui Fish Tank

You might already be familiar with the five elements in feng shui, which are water, wood, metal, fire and earth. These are the embodiment of feng shui and the elements complement one another and stop each other from monopolizing a whole room. This is why your feng shui fish tank will be useful. With a smaller fish tank or bowl, the balance can be attained by using it as an accent to the room.

If the room is colored in earth tones, such as tans or browns, you'll need a water element to bring in balance. If your living room is this type of color scheme, the water element needs to be incorporated here. This is especially helpful if the fish inside are colored brightly, such as fish with yellows, oranges, or other bright hues that will offset the warm earth tones.

However, you also need to make sure that your feng shui fish tank does not distract from another strong element. For example, if a large fireplace dominates your living room, you cannot also have a large aquarium there. This will create two large, strong elements, and they will conflict with each other. Therefore, you will not be harmonized and will be off balance.

Make sure that you place your fish bowl somewhere it can complement the room and the environment in it. This will ensure your feng shui fish tank is used to its best advantage.
