Stop selling "baby bettas"

The Issue

"Baby" bettas are too young to survive for long without specialized care. The food suggested is insufficient in size (far too large), protein content, and ingredients. The tanks recommended are too small - they're too small for adults, and far, far too small for growing fry - and no heater is recommended. Other important details about care are ignored as well. The conditions of the average pet betta and the supplies sold for them are already deplorable, but this is even worse.
