joe yazz :D Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 my 3 chromis fish have been a problem for some time. they pick on my obese Mandarin. they steal food from my corals. they beat my kids savagely (joking). i am VERY ANTI killing. but i know when enough is enough. during the night i caught 2 of those little monsters. put them in a bucket of saltwater (with a gallon of saltwater give or take) i had a broken alarm clock so i chopped the wire were it connects the alarm clock to the power outlet. i put the cut wire in the water and plugged it into outlet. i heard buzzing i left it on for 10 seconds and then i shut it off. the fish didn't even move it was so quick. DO NOT DO THIS AT HOME! i could have killed myself. but all and all it was the most humane way i have even seen to kill a fish. if you would like to bash me for killing fish i am fine. but im just saying i did it humanely, if i was a terrible trouble maker fish. i would want to die that way.

miniwhinny Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 I'm sorry but people go fishing and kill fish everyday by the thousands. There's no way I'd risk my safetly for the sake of a fish. I have an even quicker way ..."here kitty, kitty, kitty" Link to comment

yoshii Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 Could have taken them back to the LFS? But if you really want to kill them humanely, use clove oil Link to comment

But if you really want to kill them humanely, use clove oil i have seen that. its WAY too slow for me to watch... its like watching someone burn to death Link to comment
yoshii Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 i have seen that. its WAY too slow for me to watch... its like watching someone burn to death it just puts them to sleep, it's also used as an anesthetic for fish, no pain Link to comment
joe yazz :D Posted August 7, 2011 Author Share Posted August 7, 2011 it just puts them to sleep, it's also used as an anesthetic for fish, no pain COLD clove oil is one of the fav ways from fish owners. it is compared to lethal injection. Link to comment

Builder Anthony Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 Not to many reefs out there maybe returning them is a better option.To get the one fish you bought without disease there are probally a few that died in the process of cacthing them so the lucky surivivors are now toast. Most species at a young age cause troble. Link to comment

metrokat Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 ive heard putting them in the freezer where their metabolism slowly slows is the most humane way. Link to comment
yoshii Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 ive heard putting them in the freezer where their metabolism slowly slows is the most humane way. actually their cells burst, and I think their blood is messed up or something like that Link to comment
