Re: Biffy Finally Gets a Build Thread!

It euthanizes it quickly, and supposedly, painlessly. I just filled a little cup with vodka, caught the fish in the net, and put the fish in the vodka. He took one or two little gasps and it was over... Sob... There are other ways people do it too, like chopping their heads off or putting them in a cup of water in the freezer, but to me, the vodka method is the easiest. Plus I could never chop one my fish's heads off.

Re: Biffy Finally Gets a Build Thread!

You know, it is a personal choice, like birth control. If the fish is sick, i tend to use vodka. If they are little bastards, I like to put them in a plastic grocery bag, take them outside, and beat them against the sidewalk for several minutes. I get exercise, they get dead and everyone feels better.

EHEHE,,I tend to agree with Red and Doc both.
Freshly dead fish makes fresh fish food.

More pics will be coming soon... I added a little bit more rock, but nothing worth wasting "digital film" on .
