Okay. I know I said this before though I might have not said it here. I HATE when I go to petstores and see those poor little bettas in cups and with dirty water and not taken care of properly. And I even see lots of DEAD BETTAS!!!!! I went to one store and they had no dead bettas but almost all of the bettas had mold on them and some of the bettas had mold fully covering them. There was lots of food at the bottem of the cup and it was hard to see through.

OMG!!!!!!! Wal mart has bettas in BIGGER cups and they have cleaner cups. I don't like the bettas in cups but at least in walmart they had bigger cups and were taking care of them well.

Big Als takes care of their bettas well but the containers are too small

Pet Centre had 2 cups each that had dead bettas. The other bettas had water just good enough to see the color of the fish.
Before when I went to this store I saw 2 male bettas in each cup. They were not in good shape.


I AM SO MAD AT THE STORES THAT DON'T TAKE CARE OF THERE BETTAS GOOD.

It's bad enough when "regular" people don't take decent care of their animals, but industry professionals have absolutely no excuse! Mad Mad Mad

True. I got to except that they have to be in small cups becuase they cannot be put togeather. But not having the fish taken care of and having dead and half rotted living fish is too far. I only have a 5 gallon tank for a hospital tank. They have female bettas in small cups which is not right becuase female bettas can be put togeather.

Too bad I can't make a diffrence on all thoese lives. Rolling Eyes Crying or Very sad

I know, it's sad to see Bettas in little cups. It's just not right.

Yeah betta cups are bad but one petstore I went to had them in like little plastic air bubbles that had water in them. I don't have as much a problem with them being in cups if their taken care of.. Think about it, male bettas don't get along and they can't have a single tank for each fish, that would be too much. And they could devide the tanks so more bettas could be in there but they have such fighting wills they could find a way to get at each other.

That's a very good point Ketlin. Never thought about that.
