- It won't make any difference where it goes. Feng shui is BS. Why do you people fall for this stuff.
- Honestly, I think Fish tank's motors are quite calming while sleeping. Maybe working around the tank, making the tank a focal piece of the room?
- Call it a water feature. Don't they suggest water features everywhere? It's all in how you look at it.
- Feng Shui is about creating space that provides supportive energy to the individual who live or work in that space. Many who do not know the essentials of Feng Shui doubts it benefits. However, if you keep an open mind and willing to explore into the world of Feng Shui, you will find that many Feng Shui concepts are quite beneficial and makes sense. In the use of water in Feng Shui, one should always be careful where water goes. Water is the essence of life, for without water no living beings would survive. However, water in the wrong location or too much water, can overwhelm a person. After all, Feng Shui is about balance and harmony. A large fish tank filled with water in a bedroom will overwhelm the space. There will be too much water in the bedroom which will make the space out of balance. You are correct, most Feng Shui practitioners do not advise having water in the bedroom. This is because water is an active element, it is constantly moving. This especially true with a fish tank, because the pump and fishes are constantly moving the water. Remember the purpose of the bedroom is to rest our bodies and rejuvenate. By having water in the bedroom, it creates too much movement (energy in the room is constantly active) and does not allow the body to rest. You need to ask yourself a few question before doing anything. First, how well do you sleep in the bedroom with the fish tank and fishes? If you sleep well with the fish tank, then you might have a high level of tolerance. If you do not sleep well, it is best to get rid of the tank. How is your health, do you have bladder or liver problems, arthritis, urniary infection? Water can cause these type of health problems when located in the wrong area. Can you just get rid of the fish tank all together, sell it or give it away? Why did you have a fist tank in your bedroom in the first place? If you have such a beautiful fish tank, wouldn't you want it in a area where your friends and family can enjoy them (like the living or family room), not just you and your husband in the bedroom? If you can not move the fish tank and do not want to get rid of it completely. The only solution is to clean out the tank and not have water or fishes in it. Get creative and use it as a glass display case instead. Good luck.
