This is a question I've always wondered. When small fish die, you just wrap them up and toss them in the garbage but what about the big fish? I mean, what the heck would you do with a 24" dead silver arowana or a 1' dead oscar?
 
i wanted to stuff my snakehead...but i couldent get it in my freezer

but you wrap em up in big black bag and toss em
 
I ono never happened to me, I gave away my oscars and arowana to some one with a bigger tank. The fishes that died were small enough to go town the toilet or i just threw them away.
 
Never happened to me, but depending on how they die I'd eather eat it or toss it into the ground.... rotting things are good for the ground... I have a fish burial ground in front yard from all my tiny tetras and stuff that dies from when I was 7....
 
Search "monster fish eater" threads in the photo section by the TRUST.
 
My Black Arowana jumped out of his tank.....I found him a couple of hours later...I put him in a black garbage bag, put him in the freezer....Then I had him mounted!!!
