Information On Bettas

Tisdale - Thursday, January 17, 2002 - By: Jacki Abraham

Hi Mr. Shire, I was just reading about your new pet and thought you might be interested in this site. I too got a Betta for Christmas this year and have been doing some research on the best environment and care of this interesting little critters. In case you hadn't heard, the jewelry store in the mall has been selling "Betta Vases" or "Peace Vases". I've read about these and have found out that they are basically a torture chamber for these poor little fish. I called the store last week to let them know of the information I've found. It will be interesting to see if they continue to sell this item.
