For some reason the other discus turned on him. Why I never figured out. They beat him up pretty good. So I took him out and put him in a hospital tank. He never recovered so I did what I thought was best. He was just suffering.

The freezer alone takes too long. The straight vodka only takes about 60 seconds.

I've only had to put down 3 fish and they were all small so I had my husband use a sharp knife and chop off their heads. No quicker way than that. Not sure what I'll do if a big fish gets terminally ill. Maybe confer with a vet on that one.
