WHAT’S A SIAMESE FISH WORTH?
The amount paid in an online auction for a Siamese fighting fish with the colours of the Thai national flag, possibly making it the most expensive Betta fish ever sold. Pictures of the fish, with its blue, red and white horizontal stripes mimicking the Thai flag, went viral after its breeder, Kachen Worachai, posted them on a private Betta fish auction group on Facebook. “I never expected my fish to go for this price,” said Kachen, a 40-year-old convenience store owner who breeds Betta fish as a hobby.
