I don't think that the majority of the members will have them. Glofish in general, is not appealed by the majority. But that doesn't mean that people shouldn't keep them. That's totally up to everyone themselves. I myself wouldn't go for glofish either but that's more because I love wild phenotypes. So, that's just personal.
Have you ever tried to seek for them online? It could be that an online shop may have them. The chance that you will find glofish bettas at an average lfs, is quite small. And probably also more pricey.

Please correct me if I'm wrong but I think GloFish bettas are discontinued. I couldn't find them anywhere online or on the GloFish website.

That could be the case. For I'm not sure if they are discontinued. Where I am from, they're not allowed to be sold.

That might be the first discontinued fish. It's not a phrase we generally use for living things, but it's apt for such manufactured ones.

I used BettaFishGirl's words...

curious why they were "discontinued" due to lack of sales ( general interest ), or some health issue with that fish associated with the process???

they are supposed to be sterile, I think??? so they couldn't be bred...

I'm not proud of it ( they are so outside my box ) but I bought some purple & orange tetras for a MN Vikings Football tank... just my general observations, was likely over crowding or poor care as many of the fish were not healthy, don't know if that was from the "maker", a distributor, or the retail seller... but maybe has something to do with it???

I never got to see one in the flesh, but on other videos when I saw them in the fish store they always looked deformed or sick...that could be the stores fault but every one?

GloFish are actually supposed to be hardier because of the jellyfish genes that were introduced to them generations ago. It's interesting to learn about them

They should teach that in school..."The GloFish course"

ew....now why would I want to buy that when I can buy this?

Probably why they were 'discontinued'...bettas don't need to glo, they're gorgeous already

The chain pet store I go to once in blue moon as not biggest fan of chain pet stores had sign that discontinued from '' manufacturer '' due to lack of sales .

I think they may be banned in Wales and England and maybe all the UK.
Practical fishkeeping magazine started a campaign against dyed fish.
Just looked it up it was 1996 "Join the global fight against dyed fish"

Glo fish aren't dyed though. They're genetically modified to look like that.
