Euthanize it and tell your sister that it jumped out the tank. And please explain to your sister that she broken five laws and VHS ban. Educate her.

Yes what really makes me angry is that I specifically told her not to keep anything and especially not fish. And the fact that she is 16 I was hoping she knew how to listen.

No I don't, unfortunately. I have never had to euthanize a fish. Is decapitation humane?

Yes, decapitation is "humane". Know anyone with an oscar or other larger fish?

Actually I just fed it to our salamander. He gobbled it up.

Well she is lucky that she dont get caught by officers, otherwise they might revoked her fishing license in future or worse expensive fines.

Unfortunate end for the fish, but you made the right choice. I can't imagine the survival rate for pike juveniles is high, so it probably met the same fate it would have anyway.

Salamander food, yum lol. Bummer that you couldn't keep it though.

 

[gar man]

would of been nice to keep it but you did the right thing
