Wal-Mart keeps these little guys in the most deplorable conditions I've ever seen. If you walk down the fish aisle, depending on your store, you'll see the bettas in tiny compact containers with barley any water, stacked up on each other. Most of the fish are dead and the ones who aren't are dying, floating in their own filth.
