In general, this should not be an issue.

I have lots of clients who own bungalows and they do have water positions above their homes. Often, they have a terrace area here, and water plus plants keep the roof `cool'.

Often, if this is a new development; the structural engineer would have factored the load in kilonewtons. And if the roof can take the load, this is acceptable.

The only issue is that it is best that a pond should have some shade else the fish could end up being `cooked' by the hot sun.

In addition, water drainage should be efficient such that; if there is a heavy rainfall, excess water in the pond should be drained properly.

Where possible, the pond should be located such that it shares one external wall. Here, this implies that it is not at the centrepoint of the home where often, this is the weakest area i.e. few if any columns to support such a heavy structure. But again, this is subject to structural integrity of the roof load.

Often, a decorative screen is used here. The test is to stand at the main door; looking inwards. If one cannot see the staircase, this is no longer a threat.

Two fu dogs is still acceptable provided they are plump and has a smiling face.

Often, try to go for white ones. Often a red ribbon with a pearl is placed on the collar of each fu dog.

Often placing it on the floor reminds one of placing it at a temple entrance or some shopping centre.

Often, if you have a gate; the most common (tested) method is to place them on the twin pillars of the main gate.

Frankly, based on your description, you are a long, long way from understanding the Ba Zi or Eight Characters.

Try to do more homework into this area:

1. Weak or Strong element?
2. What is your binding element etc...

Warmest Regards,
Cecil
