Hi,
I noticed that your advise to have the no of fish depends on the Kua no. Being a fish lover, I cannot resist the urge to add more fish in my pond. Is this okay?
Also, I am a weak fire person, but enjoy the effect of the water flowing. Can placing pots of plants around my pond helps? Pls advise

Dear Anon,
1. In several past messages and in my Applied Feng Shui book, I mentioned several "methods" used such as by:
1. Shape of the Fish Tank
2. Number of fishes i.e. based on Kua or Yin and Yang (even or odd number of fishes)
3. Type of fishes etc..
4. Color of the stand used at different sections of the home
Thus, I would like to clarify that usually, I do not `advise' but rather highlight the various practises such as no. of fishes used either to relate to a person's Kua number.
There are `pro and cons' in using various methods.
For the no. of fishes, I had on a few occasions mentioned what happened if one's Kua number is 1. Does it mean that one has to resort to the `fate' of rearing only one fish.
In Feng Shui, if fishes suddenly die in succession, in a some of the replies I mentioned the `routine' of adding fishes (staggered) at a time.
Overall, it is nice to understand that the rearing of fishes can be related to one's Kua number but is difficult to monitor or implement.
2. Thus, it would be best to use commonsense i.e. see how big the fish tank is and buy or replenish a reasonable number of fishes will do.
Warmest Regards,
Cecil
