Well I can't speak for ALL PetCos of course, but the one I worked at I know for a fact that they took very good care of their animals. A reason why you may see a lot of dead or sick fish in a store is because after transportation to the store its VERY stressful on the fish, being transported and put into a 'new home' so many don't make the trip.Quote:

Likewise, the Petsmart near me never took care of its animals, so it all depends on location.
But at my store anyway, I got yelled at once for calling a rat a stinker or something (playfully, of course) because he tried to bite me while I was cleaning his cage, haha. So I can only speak of my PetCo and assure you that the animals WERE and ARE taken care of there. Otherwise, I don't know. :o Each store is different, each store is run by different management and has different employees.
My betta lives in a 55 gallon tank, with other fish.
Ten gallons is fine for a betta, maybe add a filter & heater. Then you can get a couple other small tropical fishies!!! :D:D
