Good luck, and remember PICTURES! Try pick out a needy one who you know would die soon if you don't come to his aid. They are more rewarding, and you save a life.

thats waht I will do.. I think I'll just go to petco, since my petsmart "cares" a bit more about their bettas (the cups are cleaner and bigger... at the very least)

Ok, the poor thing was exhausted!, I feed him and he devoured his food like he had never been fed before! then, I turned off the lights and I will let him sleep...

His cup said "Feed betta sparingly, 2-3 times per WEEK "

So now do they not only put the poor things in a tiny dirty cup, but now they want the people that buy them to starve them??
