I have a goldfish in a bowl and it got very ill recently. Started by not eating, then sunk on the bottom of the tank, started floating sideways and eventually hunched over sideways barely moving sitting at the bottom of the tank. Asked my friends this evening what to do. My very quiet and well mannered from leapt forward "slam a massive brick over it as hard as you can. squish it to death!" (its always the quiet ones you know..) But just wanted to let you know that I changed the water, purified the tank. reintroduced me fish and fed him a single mushed up pea. within hours he is swimming normally again (laps around the tank), eating, and looking rather happy i must say! Ill have to keep you posted on the results! Just googled and it led me to this website.

Please stand up to the job that belongs to the hobby of keeping fish. The least cruel way is to smash it on concrete with great force or quickly wrap it in toiletpaper or plastic, lay it on a flat surface and smash a flat stone/tile on top of it. This is really the quickest way and you know for sure that it is the end of the suffering. Flushing through the toilet is just cruel. If you dare not to kill a sick fish, please find someone who is willing to do it for you and safe the fish more agony. With keeping life animals comes responsibility.

Roll over it twice. Sometimes the best way out for the victim is the quickest, most painless choice - even though what is left looks horrible to the living. Blowing it up with a small amount of explosives works too. BAM! Out. Gently lay it down just behind the rear tire of your car after quickly removing it from the tank. Roll over it twice.
