Was at walmart picking up a few things........went over to the fish area to pick up a net when I saw some new and really healthy bettas. Some goofball had put two of them in one cup (I think to see if they would kill each other!!!). I started flipping out and yelling at whoever would listen, then grabbed a net and put one back in the other cup. Man, it is idiots like that who make me wanna go ballistic and start punching people! 
(whyiotta) That person HAD to know what they would do, otherwise, who would bother??? One lost a long chunk of fin, but since I was there (I hope) the injuries weren't too serious!

I refused to leave until they cleaned his water. I stood there waiting because I got the impression they'd just throw the cup with BOTH bettas away as soon as I turned my back 
and his betta cups are ALWAYS clean, and I never see any diseased or dead bettas there. I've seen him do water changes, and feed the bettas. I try to buy my bettas there whenever I can. That's where I got my new guy today, Giorgio (a lovely pale purple and bright, actual orange betta). I make a point to tell him how impressed I am with the aquatic section.
Yes, I must say, these bettas there were AWESOME!!!! SOOOOOOOO healthy and happy........big, fat, sassy, and awesome water conditions. I didn't even look at the tanks though, I try to stay away from those.........
). The cups at my Wal-Marts are always clean and I never see any dead bettas in them (unlike petco who always has dead bettas floating in yellow water). And what's really cool about Wal-Mart down here, there's cameras pointed right at the bettas, with a TV moniter so you can see yourself checking out the bettas. People are much less likely to tamper with the poor fish when they know they are on film.
