How do I get rid of my fish?
Most of my fish died, and here are the possible reasons why (all of these things occurred in <4 days):
-silicone may have poisoned them (I put an aquarium background and the instructions said use silicone to attach it.)
-could have been deprived of oxygen (long story)
-could have caught a disease from my brother's frog feeder fish
-could have gotten sick due to an overdose of chlorine remover/fin repairer
Anyway, some of the fish are still alive, but I don't want the fish anymore, anyway. So how do I get rid of the remaining fish. I can't give them to anyone, because they could be poisoned. I can't kill them because then I'd feel guilty for killing fish that could be healthy. If it's any help, the ones that died were neon tetras, zebra danios, and tiger barbs. The ones that are currently alive are a rosy barb, a suckerfish, an albino cory, and one feeder minnow.

Toss them in a lake
You could give them to a rescue center or something.
Craigslist or Ebay
Wait maybe a week or so and see if they are in fact poisoned. If they seem fine and healthy, I’m sure your local pet store will take them to sell them.
center
IF U REALLY CARED ABOUT THE ANY OF THE FISH NONE OF THEM WOULD HAVE DIED, SO JUST GO AHEAD AND FLUSH THE REST DOWN THE TOILET!
If I were to guess, the minnow will be toast as well soon. Give it a week and for the remaining fish if they make it, call up a pet store and see if they’ll take them. Barbs can be aggressive fish and with the rest of the barbs dead, he’ll start picking on your other fish. If you care about them, you’ll take them to a store so they can have a good home. Make sure that the store knows the circumstances, though. They may want to keep them in isolated tanks and hopefully be able to treat them for whatever was wrong with your other fish.
