Hello all,
I have been frustratingly scouring the Internet for days trying to find a betta supplier. I'm wanting to purchase a really stunning betta for my 12-gallon Fluval tank. My LFS's only carry the regular veil tail and a few crown tails. So far, the only US suppliers I've managed to find (and I've only found a couple) don't seem to have much stock at all, and the ones they do have, I'm not really interested in. It seems most of the ones I really like are shipped via transhippers to the US from Thailand, and that makes me a bit leery. I've seen suppliers listed on forums, but their links no longer work, so I'm assuming they're out of business. I've registered on aquabid.com, but--oh boy--what a horrible site to navigate! And, again, it seems most of the fish I like are from Thailand.
Does anyone know of any top-notch US suppliers of bettas? Barring that, does anyone know of any trustworthy Thai suppliers or aquabid sellers?
Thanks for any help you can provide. I'm at my wits end. I don't understand why we don't have some really good betta breeders here in the US or why they seem to be so hard to find.
