how do you handle a BIG dead fish?

[Conor1148]

this has always confused me, what do you guys do with them?

i figure you cant flush a 14" fish and all

personally, the only thing ive had die were shrimp (kinda new), and i tossed them in the trash.

so what do you guys do when a monster kicks the bucket?

Trash them, bury them, or freeze them

I put them in a bag and put them in the trash. There is only one fish I've ever buried, around 5 years ago, my first monster fish....

Might as well chop it up and bury it in your garden.

freeze then throw away

I have a burial in my backyard under one of the rocks. Then after a month I play paleontologist and delicately dig up the remaining skeleton. Unless the ground is frozen, then I throw them in our spare freezer in the basement till summer.

bury him

My 11 inch frontosa went into the trash last week. May not be considered a monster,but she was my largest in the colony. I don't have anywhere to bury her unfortunately, and the apt complex my frown when they see me digging a hole.

*Haven't made it to where I can chop them up... Maybe food processor or blender?

Keep them in the tank and pretend they're alive.

But seriously, I freeze them until garbage day and then throw them in the bin.
