I felt that I needed to intervene to stop the agony.
Long behold I wanted to find the most humane way to go about the euthanasia process and was clueless. I took to the web to find a "horror" of different methods used out there. Long story short, I didn't want to elect a method I was unsure would be less painful to the current state. Sadly I was unable to intervene and my quarantined fish eventually passed on his own.
There will always be opposing views on the topic but this article definitely outlined the basis and I wish I could have read this around that time.
