Front garden or (sometimes) garbage.

Surprisingly they don't have a rotting fish smell, that only seems to happen with huge fish.

I don't put dead fish though in any of the vegetable/herb gardens though. I don't trust that any antibiotics or meds that they were likely treated with at one point in their life has left their system. The soil by me is already very bad (used to be at the bottom of the ocean) for growing stuff so I wouldn't want to make it worse.

I open the basement door and throw them under the deck.

A million years from now, people will be digging and looking and will find
all of these skeletons in the dirt. Boy that will throw research off. LOL

Researchers have something very odd and are puzzled as to how native African Cichlid fish skeletons have appeared in what was once known as "Harford County, Maryland". The remains were found in a section of property that was labeled "Wildlife Protection" as part of a research assignment at the Johns Hopkins University Ichthyology lab.

After fifty years of digging, researchers who were once stunned by the massive amounts of bones that were found on a site in Merryland have come across yet another puzzling piece of information.
There have dug up a note that was written a pad entitled "CCA". On the note there were only these words:
"I never got the chance to finish that **** kitchen".

For mysterious deaths (usually wildcaught fish, I've had two fish in the past two years just dropped dead overnight with no warning.) I freeze them.

I plan on mailing the 'bodies' to an ichthyology lab for them to do a necropsy. I heard of a University in California that welcomes such fish, but I've yet to find one on the Eastern Seaboard...

Nearly three years later, researchers are once again stunned that the term "Jersey Math" was actually true and the word "Fifty" was legally changed to "Fity". Providing the true accuracy and pronouncation of the word.

Using evidence from the fossel record, scientist have concluded Hartford County Maryland was once part of central Africa. Carbon dating has found these fossels to be between 250-300 years old. This is further proof that the action of plate tectonics happens much faster that previously believed.

Mine go in the trash(afraid of passing something to the local fish). In the summer time they might go in the freezer until trash day.

In a ziplock and then in the trash for me. I used to flush until one decided it wasn't ready to go to the septic tank and I didn't find out until my daughter came running out of the bathroom in tears that there was a dead fish in the potty.
