Honestly, nature will take care of the problem if you stop feeding your fish. (which, you should never feed them anyway. i never do and things work out just fine.)
If you don't give them away/sell/trade them, plant them under your corn. Old Indian trick. You're welcome.

"Should never feed" that's a big statement. IF you choose to not feed your fish they will find a natural equilibrium in the environment you provide. How ever many people choose to take on the responsibility for the fish they acquire and the environment they provide. They may choose to feed the fish to provide the best they feel they can.

There are reasons for both viewpoints.
