Hi all!
Thanks for the replies. I had read somewhere, or heard through Lillian Too's video about using water plus metal to activate the north's career/wealth luck. Plus activating the northeast and the northwest with water would be beneficial too.
I can't remember all the details right now but that is what I do remember.
The reason why I have fish is due to my kids wanting a pet and cats and dogs are out of the question as I am allergic so are hamsters, mice and bunnys they smell too much for my liking

I can't have a 50 gallon tank in the north in that area as it would be too big for me to house 9 fish. This area is my entrance, you would have to take a bath before you got into the lounge otherwise!
I like the fact that number of fish really doesn't matter and interesting that superstition dictates the #6 fish to enhance metal element.
I'm reading sooo much on FS right now I thing I end up crossing info and then confusing myself!
Balance is what you need, I read somewhere that the best way to apply FS to a home is balance, harmony and also so it doesn't look so blatantly feng shui'd. Is that safe to say, it makes sence.
