Feng Shui has been part of the Chinese Culture through thousands of years, it has been one of the main practice of the Asian countries, thank you for the Chinese. Without any Scientific explanations, Feng Shui somehow has proven positive outcomes for families who have been practicing them for a long period of time. With this, evident blessings of wealth, health and family bonds.

One of the Feng Shui's belief that may give an individual their desires, that is raising Koi Fishes.

Koi Fishes are famous due to the belief that people who raise Koi fish shall have good fortune, success, prosperity, longetivity, ambitions, courage and perseverance. China and Japan are the most famous country to maintain this type of practice, because they preserve their culture, which has been passed through geenerations to generations.
