Hi Archie, My perferred method of putting my ill fish to sleep is to put it in a bag of water, tie it, and then without looking at it, place the whole thing in the freezer. All the while convincing myself that this method is the most humane. When trash day comes, I reach in the freezer, without looking at the bag and put it in the trash. All the while convincing myself that that method was the most humane. It doesn't happen often, but I hate it nevertheless. __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
