Yuen Ying Tham has been living on a landed property at Berrima Road in the Bukit Timah area since 2002. The house was built with two ponds as the family has the hobby of rearing koi fish.

Now, Tham is left with one injured koi fish that has lost its pectoral and tail fins, one algae eater, and one albino sucker. The … [Read more...] about Otters kill over 40 koi & fishes leaving Bukit Timah resident too ‘traumatised’ to rear fish again
