well, the fact is even small family bussiness pet stores have trouble with fish. sure they can throw food in a hamster cage and feed crikets to lizards but i guess it takes just a lil bit more skill to care for fish they dont change the water in the cups, they just feed feed and feed until the fish literaly sufficates in its own crap

cause ive seen so many wonderful bettas.in china town they have like 60 bettas in cups.they r great,but most r dead.plus in china town i saw an betta in one of them betta starter kits.(1/2 gallon)with some small fish and one snail

[chatterbox]

u c i bought my 1st betta from an fish store and got it straight away cause i really wanted a betta

 

[GuppyDude]

ya, the only lfs's iv got are petco, walmart, a small aquarium shop, and a place that sells bird seed but sell fish on the side along with other pets. they all do and ok job, havn't ever seen anything to shocking

 

[chatterbox]

i have an petco around.but just dont wanna check there fish out since people on this forum say they miss treat there bettas

 

[GuppyDude]

dont listen to that, thats not always the case, my petco keeps their in big cups and they always look good. besides, sum of the best bettas i c on this forum are boght from petco wether they wanna admit it or not

 

[chatterbox]

my freind say the petco bettas look really big.like they r an year old.my betta looks like an baby

 

[GuppyDude]

well size depends on their age and haveing one be a year old isn't bad, their alredy strong and not as vernable to disease.

by the way is that betta in ur avy real?

 

[chatterbox]

dont,got it from the web.doesent it look great.if it was real i would buy in an second
