For all the money Walmart makes why do they still have to sell these poor guys?

If you cannot provide a min 1 gallon filters and heated tank for each fish than do not sell them at all!

Just reading about other people's experiences makes me sick. These are thinking, feeling, creatures, and they should be treated with dignity and respect. I wish the store owner's would develop a conscience.

Not only should they not be sold at Wal-Mart but the cups they are sold in should be unacceptable in any pet store as well! Cruel conditions. If you can't provide adequate conditions, you shouldn't sell them, no matter who you are.

Hello, I am contacting to inquire regarding the sale of live animals. I recently visited a Walmart store and I passed by the animal section and encountered a surprising sight. I saw 15 betta fish in plastic containers with water filled up halfway and with completely orange water, barely visible. I had to contact an employee and stacked up the entire sink area with sick bettas on top of each other. I want to report this traumatic encounter I had with this unacceptable treatment towards live fish. I am disappointed in the way Walmart Corporation is treating live animals without the proper research and sanitary care. I would like to request Walmart to please research the necessary water changing conditions for live betta fish without the need to create inhumane living conditions for them as they are living beings who require care. I also didn’t find an employee who specifically was in or monitoring the pet department. I went to the store to buy a betta fish and left upset with emotional trauma from the store. I would appreciate it if my concern will address this situation I encountered and improve the water care and living conditions for Betta fish. ITS DIGGUSTING AND TOTALLY INHUMANE AND CRUEL to see these beautiful living beings being treated like items when they are valuable animals who deserve every ounce of RESPECT.
Thank you

We just saved 3 betta fish from walmart because they were in such sad condition. I'm not a huge animal person, but their living situation was just horrid. I couldn't let it go...

Absolutely inhumane. Fish are just as important as dogs or cats!

Very true. Bettas are very special fish and places that sell them generally mistreat them
