Freezing would be painful, ice crystals form in their organs while they are still alive and they do not “fall asleep” before that.. Go to the baking section of a local store. There is something called Clove Oil, it’s inexpensive and it puts the fish to sleep much like they do to dogs in pounds. They do go peacefully. Soak some food in the clove oil and feed it to the fish. You might want to put the fish in an isolation tank or container while doing this if you have other fish in the tank with them, that way, it won’t accidentally kill the other fish. If you do use clove oil in the main tank, clean the tank thoroughly before adding more fish. Afterward, you can flush or bury the fish. Flushing while they are alive seems cruel too, the chemicals in the water will actually chemically burn the fish alive.
