I can't tell you for sure which is quicker or more painless. I'm not a marine biologist and even if I were I don't think I'd have the answer on another creature's consciousness. Personally I think it's really just cope and it's splitting hairs at that point. You just need to face the fact that you're killing and eating a living creature.

I've got no qualms with killing and eating something, I make an effort to dispatch those animals as quickly and humanely as possible, thus the question.
