Pet stores encouraging small bowls?

The responses in on the other website were lies and ignorance.

" Bettas rarely kill each other." "They also love house flies" "Bettas burn up little energy compared to most fishes. For instance, a zebra danio needs about 10 times more food because it never stops swimming. Bettas stop swimming all the time. They swim even less in small containers." "I read the complaint from that Kirsti Hanna and I think it's obvious she doesn't know much about bettas...I know for a fact that they don't do well in big tanks." "People whose bettas live in glass houses should not throw stones." "Speaking of off topic, bettas are not puppies. I am not recommemding that you or anyone else keep your bettas in small containers. You can use whatever size you want. I reported on real life -- not some imaginary world where every betta lives in a 2.5-gallon tank. Why not a 50-foot bong in Thailand? What entitles you to keep your bettas in captivity? Anyway, you're entitled to your own provincial opinion. LA
PS I'll probably keep my website"
OH DEAR GOD, how can they fit so much stupid into one website!?!

I keep Carter in a ten gallon and Bettas rarely kill each other.

Bettare are a lot more peaceful than people think.
