How To Set Up Your Feng Shui Aquarium

Here is how you set up your Water Dragon Aquarium. Things to put inside the dragon aquarium are listed below:

 
  • Get yourself the largest aquarium you can afford.
  • Place this facing your front door - this is where the sheng chi is
  • Get at least 8 varieties of green plants to plant into the sand. 
  • Create a stable base with two kilos of river sand and pebbles. 
  • Place a big rock to simulate the mountain (excellent for health). 
  • Place the Wealth Buddha sitting on top of the rock. 
  • Place two sets of Dragons prominently in the tank. 
  • Scatter auspicious stones on the bed of the aquarium. 
  • Also put powerful affirmation glass stones inside. 
  • Put a wish fulfilling crystal jewel in. 
  • Put in at least 108 peaceful fish like guppies, mollies, etc. 
  • Install oxygenators to infuse yang chi continuously. 
  • Get decal stickers with powerful mantras to paste onto the tan
I am of course a very OTT (over-the-top) person and also very KIASU, so here are the 18 lucky things we placed inside the beautiful aquarium:
  1. Tortoise 7 Immortal (It's actually a dragon-head tortoise) - as the tortoise is the major celestial creature needed in 2012.
  2. 3D Crab - to enhance strategy and to prevent theft of money.
  3. Protective Rhino - to remedy the Flying Star affliction at our store door. 
  4. Yellow Dzambala - to bring wealth and lots of sales (note the colour does not run).  
  5. Glass Turtle - for support and longevity to all of us. 
  6. River Stones with Sacred Symbols to invoke the help of the cosmic forces.
  7. River Stones with Auspicious Symbols to give voice to our wishes!
  8. Wish Fulfilling Glass Stones to add positive connotations to our set-up.
  9. Ingots (plastic gold-coloured so they won't spoil), to add to our asset wealth. 
  10. Rising Blue Dragon - to energize the Water Dragon of the year.  
  11. Dragon Water - to activate the year of the Water Dragon 2012. 
  12. Rose Quartz Mandarin Ducks - to bring love and relationship luck. 
  13. Blue Water Globe to keep Water energy under control. 
  14. Crystal 8 with gold flakes to activate the # 8 Wealth Star at our main door in 2012. 
  15. Hotu Loshu - to ensure good luck is continuous. 
  16. Wish Fulfilling Jewels in varying sizes. 
  17. Amethyst Slab - We found one that has the amethyst facing up so used it as a flat top mountain/hill for enhancing our customer relations luck. 
  18. Citrine Slab - Small slab to activate wealth luck. 
Do note that there are many other fabulous feng shui reasons for keeping fish. Feng shui believers have always known that the word for fish in Chinese yu sounds very much like the word meaning abundance. This is why the Chinese tycoons of Hong Kong like keeping fish inside their offices and boardrooms. But keeping small fish like the colourful guppies also brings a secondary benefit in that when you feed the fish each day, you are in effect providing food for 108 living beings.This creates such good karma for getting wealthy and staying wealthy! So there is also an excellent spiritual reason here.
 
The presence of water not only activates the heavenly stem for the year, it also brings wealth luck. Shortage of Water element always causes wealth-making opportunities to dry up, but with water so available next year, Wood energy gets strengthened.
 

Where To Place Your Aquarium
  • Place at the foyer or living area of your home facing the front door to welcome in the sheng chi. This is extremely auspicious, especially since you have Dragons inside welcoming in the good fortune chi. 
  • Place against the Northwest wall (especially if you have a Northwest facing door) to subdue powerfully dangerous afflictive chi that threatens the patriarch in 2012.
  • Placed against the North wall, it activates the Star of the General. So aquariums placed here would benefit from an image of Kuan Kong placed standing on top of the aquarium. Very auspicious indeed!
  • Placed against the East wall it activates the Dragon energy that benefits the eldest son of the family. Here the aquarium also activates the energy related to romance and marriage. Place the Double Happiness sign (as many as you like) inside the tank to activate marriage luck.
  • Placed against the Southwest wall, the tank will help subdue the afflictions of this sector in 2012. The Dragons inside the tank will enhance the Dragon chi energy for residents.
