why would you want to buy them in bulk?

bettas should not be kept in these containers and nobody here will condone their use.. it is cruel and inhumane and should be illegal

that is like making you live in a bathroom for your whole life with no fan or circulation of any kind

The OP did not ask about the ethics of this, he asked where he could buy some..

Lets not second guess why these are being asked for. They may be simply to ship the fish, or temp storage...who knows...So, lets keep things constructive huh??

Thanks Reefscape. I am actually breeding mealworms(small scale now, but hopefully larger scale in time) and will need small containers like the one Petsmart uses for their betta's to ship the mealworms. I have a thread on MFK if anyone is interested. :)

I agree with you 100% they shouldn't be kept in these smaller containers. See post above for what I'm using them for.


Thanks everyone else. I'll look at maybe like the dollar stores. I know of some that you can buy in bulk from their company. MIght see if I can found some betta breeders or sellers and see where they get theirs. :)

I would look in the phone book for party supply/bulk goods type places. Or check your local sam's club/bj's/costco

Well, the internet is a great place.
Im pretty sure SOMEONE has to sells those kind of things haha.

You could go to the petstore and ask them where they get the Betta Containers from :)
