well, when I walked int othe post office to pick up my fish, I was discouraged by the size of the box..no way could it fit 50-60 baby bettas in it, no way a reasonably sized bag would fit..unfortunatly, I was right..

2 TINY! little itty bitty bags were inside, first off, the smell hit me, i dident have to look inside to know each one was dead, how could they not be? look at your fist..thats about how big each bag is they were shipped yesterday, arrived today, and I cant get in contact with the seller yet...40 bucks, wasted on 60 dead fish..

WARNING GRAPHIC!!!

You think thats enough proof?

That is absolutely disgusting! What kind of person would do that?? Unbelieveable! I would demand a refund. Where did you purchase them from?? Some people...

72 gallon bowfront:Tanganyikan Lake set up
75 gallon: A. Baenschi trio,Cyanotilapia Afra Cobwe(4), copadichromis trewavase, protomelas sp. tangerine tiger(breeding pair)

I found a betta breeder pretty much giving away these fish, it would cost me 20 for the fish, and 20 for shipping, he even threw in like 40 extras! but I think, it was the extras that made the trip harder..I am realy upset, I have been waiting for these to be ready for about a month

OMG!! how can ppl be that cruel!!!
to ship that many fish in a single small bag is just plain cruel and disgusting! the smell would have been horrid by the time you received them dead.. and that happened overnite!

i would definately be complaining and requesting a refund and blacklist the guy who sold them!!!

Truth doesn't always win friends but it influences them

he told me that the others he shipped to other people got there ok, it was over 100F I guess where he lives, i'm just not sure, but i'm getting a full refund thankfully and decided to go ahead and breed a pair i was going to wait on, but after only being in the tank a few days, the female already has breeding stripes and the male a nest, but i'm gunna let them wait a little longer I bought the female CT yesterday, and brought the HMDT male home from my friend the same day, he already had a huge nest while I was conditioning him, I just decided to pop them in the breeding tank and condition them there

The guy was realy nice about it, and seemed upset that it happened, he is sending my money back tomorrow, but I'm still worried about the double analfin male I'm suppost to be getting from another person, it was sent off and shipped today..I'm hopeing to God he survives

I just counted the bodies, and there were 64..I payed $40 total and I was suppost to only get 20 *thats 44 extra throw ins*

he was being nice, but I guess he just wasnt thinking

The pictures say it all..."WOW"
