I'm a member on another betta forum, and this was posted in the classifieds portion. I wrote the seller, and he informed me that the breeder is ONLY keeping the fish until this next Sunday. After that they will be euthanized. I asked if he would mind my posting it on this forum, and he said to go ahead, but I'm to let you all know that if you are interested, you MUST have all your information to him before Sunday at 4pm (California time). There are 200 HM males left. No females. Some HMPK. I was also told that all have some form of fin damage. I'm going to take the risk and do it. I understand this is a risk, but I'm willing to take it to save a couple guys. Use your own judgment, please.
I asked the OP of the thread on the other forum if she personally knew Sebastien to vouch for him (aka- this isn't a scam, right?), and this is the response I received:
"I know Sebastien, the fish are one of his co-workers fish, I myself have adopted from Sebastien before as well as many others on this board, the only fish I have seen to be adopted are the pictures of the ones in the post, Seb asked if I could post this for him on here as he is not a member nor is his co-worker, I know him off a different group, I would defiantly ask any and all questions you have to Seb, before you adopt, this is kind of a "grab-bag" of bettas, the only guarantee Seb said he could give is that they are healthy fish! and fin damage can always grow back, I myself have adopted 2 times from him and have not been disappointed! I don't blame you one bit about being nervous about the risk involved with adopting fish! I was the same way with my first adoption from him also, he is a really good guy though and will not say things just to get someone to adopt!"
So, having said all that, here's the information from the other forum (posted by an established member):
Hello to all,
I have a friend who needs to place about 200 bettas, most of them are HM and a few are HMPK, he needs to re-home them as soon as possible, if they can not be re-homed they will unfortunately be disposed of in a humane way, this is kind of a "grab-bag" for bettas, you can ask for up to 4 fish at a time/per shipping charge, most of these bettas have fin damage, I will add pictures of some of them in a couple of days to give you an idea, because of the number that need to be re-homed, I will ask that you not be picky on colors, as I said , they have fin damage but are very healthy otherwise and they are all just looking for loving caring homes, if you have the room please contact my friend at his e-mail below>
please use this e-mail address for more information- sebastien247209@hotmail.com
His paypal address is eyero2007@yahoo.com, and shipping is $35 (express) including an insulated box and heat pack.
He will need your full shipping info plus your phone #, as well as any color requests you have (he said he'd do his best, but no guarantees).
Here are the pictures from the other forum of some (hah...5 of 200) of the available fish:
