They didn’t have to KILL the fish- they could have just cut out their tongues, so they wouldn’t talk!
Or, they could have just taken one of the fish hostage in a Ziploc bag- that way, the other to would clam up for sure.
Glad to see that sucker go down.
Do goldfish even have scales? I thought they just had a protective slime.
A cichlid is a type of fish, so “Michael Cichlids” is another fish pun, though perhaps it has less finesse than some of the others.
That’s silly.
The fish could still use sign language.
He should have targeted a home with a sign saying “Bivalve on Board”. You can always trust in the silence of the clams.
Enjoy,

They’ve made a rod for their own back.
He did the right thing. Goldfish are notorious tattletales. Snitches of the sea they are.
I once learned to lip read fishes. Unfortunately they don’t have anything interesting to say. They just keep repeating “O. O. O. O. O…” and nothing else.
He thought he was safe with John Ritter dead.
too obscure?
In his defense, the Tony Scali reference is a pun unto itself.
I thought it brilliant! But yes, the fact that it relies on a mispronunciation does make it a crappie fish pun.
Be careful folks, one of the anti-punners is likely to appear anytime and threaten to put our heads on a pike. Little do they know that threats only encourage us and we won’t let the thread flounder.
They can go carp somewhere else.
Alright, that is enough with the puns boys and gills…
I don’t want to carp about the subject, but this isn’t sole-ly about animal cruelty. Goldfish can easily sell to the tuna 2 or 3 dollars each. I hate herring this kind of news story, and I’m dismayed that salmon cod do something like this which has no plaice in a civilized society. Danio think this teen was some kind of suburban hick with a mullet?
OK. I have never heard of that word before in my life. Ignorance fought.
No problem. This thread needed some schooling.

Could the detective tell genuine clues from the dead herring?
He knew there was something fishy from the beginning.
