i could understand if it was temp. and then they cut the plastic and put it in the tank but to just leave it in the plastic and let die is f***ed up man!
And I thought the bettas in handbags were cruel. Did you know that in China they put cats in small boxes with a tube to feed them through in it. When they grow up they grow to the shape of the box and turn out as a box shaped cat. People pay heaps for them even though they are all deformed and can't really walk.
