So the cold method is mean? How about boiling water... but seriously I once had an over heating issue, took out my tank and I was told they would have felt no pain. There body temp. rises they go into a comma type state and it's pretty much over. That was with a slow rise in temp. Boiling water I'd say they'd be done in a split second.

I've also read fish don't really feel pain the way humans do so I don't think it is a real issue. Whatever method makes 'you' more comfortable is the one to use I would guess.

Dave ( no... I have never tried the deliberate boil method)
