as said before it depends on size. mainly flushed
 
Trash can. Then I take the trash out.
 
If it died without disease I feed it to my African Clawed frog. Sometimes I just put them in the trash and take it out, sad to see your friends in the trash 8(
 
I flush. Septic system.
 
Either trash, or food for the snapping turtle.
 
Trash can then take the trash out. Unless it is summer time and then I freeze it and throw the baggie out right before I take the large trash bin to the curb. My trash bin is kept in my garage so the bears don't get at it and a dead fish in the trash for a few days of summer heat smells awful!!
 
I bury them in our garden. So it becomes "fertilizer" for the plants unless some stray cat digs em out. :)
 
Where's the option "eat them"?

Why would somebody put their dead fish in the freezer? Are these people really thinking of eating them later? I wouldn't recommend eating a dead fish from an aquairum.
 
freeze them or toss them in the trash. freezing keeps them out of the garbage can on hot days, and gives you extra time in case your fish died a mysterious death and you want to try and do a necropsy at a later time.
