Yeah... I find it different from the puppy mill stories...only because consumers have actually done things about puppy mills, its slowly gotten better.... Bettas on the other hand are considered "Throw aways" so i'm not sure we can stop it.

Check you local Pet Smart. Mine does a really good job taking care of the bettas. There are some that have been sick ( thats where Dropsy girl came from) but they do try. They clean the cups every other day. So if you go to a store I'd recommend them. It may not be the same in your area, but its worth a shot.


Awuabid at times is no better than the shops...just dont buy from thailand, a it too much for the little guys to go through I think.
