Magical Koi - amazing effect

The sight of tens of Koi - in a riot of colors ranging from red, white, black and yellow to gold and platinum - moving gracefully and languorously in my crystal clear pool can certainly take my breath away. And strangely, the longer I looks, the more serene I feels.

For some people, the Koi fishes are the last thing one sees before leaves for work and the first that greets one when one arrives home. As one testimonial says “when I open my car door, the first thing I hear is the pleasant sound the waterfall, I instinctively walk towards it and the Koi ponds. The water in both ponds is crystal clear, and I see my carps swimming towards me. They have a wonderful effect on me. The stress of a long workday roll away and I feel refreshed and rejuvenated. I spend the next 15 to 30 minutes feeding them and enjoying the serenity, before I go in to see my family, calmed and very much relaxed.”

The Koi does have its influence on Feng Shui, besides its aesthetic value. Their beauty and colors will brighten up any house and the dynamic way in which they flow in the pond exudes the aura of a respect-commanding ‘general’ so to speak. The water element, the pond and the Koi symbolizes wealth.
