Please fix-the-leaks, first! Help! Help! Help me!
Rule #1: Fix-the-leaks, First! If not sure, repeat: Go to Rule #1 Many of us assume that Feng Shui is all about enhancements. This is what a unscrupulous Feng Shui master wants you to think so. Here, they don't mind off-loading useless products in the name of Feng Shui to you. Imagine, if you load all those useless products onto your boat.. it will certainly sink-for-sure! When the buying stops, the selling can!

What are the top 3 positions for placing a wall clock?
This is a well-known Chinese prohibition [or taboo] 1. The positioning of a clock holds greater significance in relation to symbolism and the Chinese culture, rather than other ethnicities. 1.1. In Chinese culture, giving someone a clock for their home is often seen as bringing bad luck. 1.2. Having a clock facing the main door or pointed directly at a person is also considered inauspicious in Chinese tradition. 1.3. These beliefs come from long-held cultural symbolism in Chinese customs. 2. Another reason, not mentioned earlier, comes simply from everyday common sense. 2.1. Some Feng Shui masters suggest avoiding placing a clock above a door, hallway, or right over a bedroom entrance. 2.2. Their advice comes from the possibility that the clock could fall and accidentally injure someone. 2.3. If the clock has a glass front, it could crack and create a hazard, especially if the glass is not tempered. 3. When thinking about where to place a clock: 3.1. It’s better not to put a clock at location B, since the ticking sound may be thought to irritate the gods in Chinese culture. 3.2. Location A works well because it’s not directly visible from the passageway. 3.3. Location C is fine too, but it’s worth keeping in mind the safety concern mentioned in paragraph 2.2 if the clock were to fall.

Aquariums in bedroom
These are some considerations: 1. Through my many years of doing Feng Shui audits, I have personally encountered several persons who had actually placed a fish tank in their master bedroom. Although this was never my idea. 2. As it so happens to be that these persons had stayed in their home for sometime and requested for a Feng Shui audit. 3. Hobby or Placement of a fish tank for the sake of Feng Shui? 3.1. Often, those who try to place a fish tank for the sake of Feng Shui will not do so well vs those who place it for a hobby. 3.2. Why? This is because under the Holy Trinity of Chinese Luck system: There are three: a. Heaven Luck = born with b. Earth Luck = Feng Shui of e.g. home and work c. Human or Man Luck = such as family relationships. Or for a single perhaps their real love of e.g. a hobby. 4. Sometimes even if a person's Heaven or Earth luck ain't fantastic; but the person has good or great Human or Man Luck; this can overcome other adversities (if any). 5. Thus if you really, really feel good about rearing fish, then no one should stop you from doing so. 6. My advice is perhaps to start with just a single fish tank first. And see how it goes. 7. As to the placement of the fish tank(s); this will come naturally for a hobbyist! Thus, see which location in that room of yours that you feel most comfortable with. Here, I suspect that in this case, perhaps, what one may want is to have a full view of the fish(es). Good Luck!

It is not a good idea to place an altar facing towards the sleeping quarters or partially facing (side glance) of the kitchen. Although, the last input can be remedied.

8 Hullet @ Hullet Road, formerly Hullet Court The development features a single tower block, which is aligned slightly off the North-South axis. In terms of Shapes and Forms Feng Shui, a single tower block is considered a safe and traditional design because it allows for uniform airflow around the building. There is also ample clearance surrounding the development, creating a positive "bright hall" effect. This refers to the clear space around the windows and balconies, which helps promote favorable Qi flow. However, it should be noted that there is another apartment located next to one side of the development.- Parksuites @ Holland Grove Road by Far East Organisation
