The fish hobbyist who dared to care

KLUANG: Ng Ah Phow used to be obsessed with collecting wild fish when he was young. He even rented a car to travel around the country, gathering his favourite wild beta and arowana species.

Now the 53-year-old, who has a fisheries science degree from National Taiwan University, has turned his passion into a successful business venture breeding arowana fish, including the endangered golden arowana.
