What is the worst betta aquarium you have ever seen?

I'm just curious. I'm not talking about those one gallon aquariums with a little filter. I am talking about just plain absurd.

I found one at a petsupermarket. It is described as a four inch jasim betta bowl. It is only four inches from bottom to top, not side to side. They have gravel and a plant you can add to it. With all of that I think there might be a cup of water for the fish. I don't think any betta would be very happy in it. It makes me sad.

    That's bad, but I can top it! I don't have a photo, but I saw a lady's purse with a built-in Betta "tank!" Basically, a little tiny pouch of water. I can't imagine how the poor thing could live more than a day or two. Maybe that's one reason they never caught on! Wearing a living animal as an accessory is reaching new depths of stupidity!

    The vases with a plant stuffed in the top are pretty bad, too. Can we say Labyrinth Organ? Hellooooo!

    I know this isn't an aquarium but thought I would share this anyway.

    We visited 4 aquariums today, and this is the truth, the last shop we visited, there was, ON THE COUNTER, a male betta in a plastic 600ml coke bottle and in texta it had SOLD on it.

    We were disgusted.

    They also had approximately 20 males in little plastic cups 1/2 filled with water with a fluro tube above.

    A tiny 2-box compartment that hangs inside another fish tank, I don't know the exact size but it couldn't have been more the 8 inches long for the whole thing.
