I have a sick pleco. Not immediately dying but obviously ill, losing
weight, pale, etc. What is the most humane way for me to play Dr. Fish
Death and help this little guy into the next life? Would like to do this,
this evening.

A friend said to put him in a small jar with only some water, put him in
the deep freeze and he will go to sleep. ???

i. why are you sure the fish needs to be put to sleep?

ii. *if* you are going to euthenise, you have to understand or at least
acknowledge emotional attachement.

iii. humane methods are based on what we feel, not what the fish feels.

lets bring this all home-- if you were terminally ill, what would you want
your family to do?

i. be sure.

ii. do what is best for you and not themselves.

iii. absolve themselves of guilt.

this topic is too philisophical for debate with most people.
