fish food
Tank feeding pellets
Fish food is commercially prepared food for aquarium or pond fish, typically sold as flakes, pellets, or freeze-dried organisms.
The phrase also serves as dark humor for someone who has drowned or been dumped in water: If he talks, he's fish food.
To sleep with the fishes carries the same implication.
