Piscina is the Latin equivalent of 'fish pond, tank for fish'. It's a feminine gender noun that also may be translated loosely as 'reservoir' and 'swimming bath [or pool]. It's a derivative of 'piscis', which is the masculine gender noun that means 'fish'.
The Latin word also exists in English. But in English, the noun 'piscina' refers to the sacristy sink into which water is poured. It's the water from the priest's washing of his hands before and after blessing and handing out the wine and the wafer of Mass.
