Some people choose to flush them down the toilet. Other people choose to barry them in their yard. If your fish has just died recently, and you are worried about the others getting sick and dieing too, before disposing the fish you may want to send it to a lab or piscine vet for an autopsy.

The usual cause of death in Goldfish is neglect. If you do a water change ASAP you just may save the fishes life.

The basic rules for successfull fish keeping are. :- 1 inch of fish needs at least 1 gallon of water (a goldfish ia a 10 inch fish) Every tank must have a permanently running cycled filter. Every tank needs at least 50% of its water replaced every week.

Never ever Flush a live fish down a toilet. Always kill it first otherwise it will die a long lingering death which is very cruel, or it may survive and become a problem in the waterways later.

Flush it down the toilet to put it out of its misery

well i love fish so i give funerals for my dead fish...

so head to the bathroom or garden, if you head to the bathroom light some candles or something, say your goodbyes, and flush...:(

or if you head to the garden or whatever put the betta in a small box about six inches long and three inches wide, then color whatever you want on the box/coffin, say your farewells and bury. then put some thing that the fish liked very much on top of his/her grave. even put a r.i.p. sign if you want. :(

well goodluck. hope you miss your fish.

fish godbless you. lol :)
