From a small group of five persons meeting at a fish shop in Retiro, Manila, PAHLS has grown to be the biggest fish club in the Philippines, and is now a non-stock, non-profit organization whose aim is to promote the hobby of fishkeeping and to educate the public regarding proper and responsible fishkeeping.
