Arowana is believed to bring all kinds of blessings to your home and your family - being increased income and protection.
The Arowana have long been kept by Chinese businessmen in Malaysia, Singapore and Thailand to help bring good fortune. Arowana are said to give you the power to overcome any challenge, helping you be sharp and on point to reach your goal. They are especially treasured by successful businessmen for their symbolism of wealth and great fortune.
Arowana are the most expensive aquarium fish in the world. In Chinese tradition they are believed to have the closest resemblance to dragons out of all creatures. This is because of their two long whiskers in the front and lustrous metallic scales.
When they are healthy, the fish emit a pink or golden glow from their shimmery scales. It is this glow that is said to be the bringer of good fortune, so it is important for the Arowana to be very healthy and strong. In Feng shui arowana are always in minimally decorated environments solitary or with odd number of fish - never in pairs.
Arowana are believed for bringing all kinds of blessings. By business mean they are called “wealth fish” and strength is known for providing protection and supporting surrounding chi flow. Because the Chinese word for fish, Yu sounds very much like surplus and abundance, and the Arowana is considered most auspicious among water dwelling creatures, this symbolism is extra potent.
