Wanted to share this cause it helps cope...

Anytime I'm at a Wal-Mart and they have fish for sale, I always take a look and see what they have. So I'm done looking at what's going on in the tanks and head down one of the pet isles. Somewhere down the center are those little plastic cups with bettas in them. So I start to take a look and notice that someone has put 3 male bettas in ONE FREAKEN CUP!!!!!! I was infuriated!! Poor little guys.. flaring gills, one all jacked up... and one kinda in the middle.. So I did what any of you guys would have done.. I seperated them into individual cups... And I'm really mouthy when I know I have a point to prove, but today was my day off and I didn't want to have a bad day .. and really.. they wouldn't have given a damn!!! Karma is all I can say.... Riencarnation baby!!!
 
I have never seen 3 males in a cup i have seen one but never 2+

Someone (not an employee, I'm sure) came along and thought it would be funny to see what they would do. They are shipped in their own little bags. If an employee did this, they should burn....

It's a terrible tragedy :(
 
You said that you did what we all would've done and separated the fish. I would not have done that. I agree that it's an unfortunate situation for the poor fish, but I'm not a vigilante. I don't take the law into my own hands. The fish are the property of Walmart. I would've kept walking.

Thanks Laticauda, I meant to include that I was thinking the same thing !!
 
I think you can put two girls with one cup but not males

Well apparently that's the difference between you and I, I never hesitate to take control of a situation, especially if I can help it....

Yes your right, although one cup is way too small even for one...
 
I would have done the same....Discretely though. I don't like getting in trouble. :grinno:

Of course, there's always the fact that I don't know what male bettas look like. :D
