Okay, i didn't really want anymore bettas at the moment, especially a male.
but I was at a LPS looking for some ghost shrimp actually,
I noticed about 13 cups over the sink, and I have never seen cups so small to house bettas in,
since I didn't bring my camera in, I just looked up an approximate size, it is no larger than this.

So I picked up each cup, I mean they were all beautiful and looked healthy, despite the small size acccomidation, then I saw a cup with a crack down the side, and a little guy laying, with JUST enough water to cover his back.
I bought the little guy, he like, screamed buy me with telepathy :3
here he is, he is a mustard gas color with orange spots O.O
he might be a little pale.

look at that face :3

So yeah, I think he is a sweetheart, I love the red spots though :)

Wow he's beautiful! But that picture of the betta cups, that's the size my LPS always uses for their bettas. Actually they have a lid with a little hole in it, hardly big enough to fit your pinkie finger through. And once I went over and a fish had jumped out! He survived though, and it's kind of like how you found him.
