This no doubt works in versions of ubuntu below feisty too, though I don't know how far back and it might not be ubuntu specific, it might just be gnome.
Press alt+f2 to get the run dialogue box
Enter "free the fish" without the quotes of course
Observe.

This easter egg only works on Gnome, which is the desktop engine used for standard Ubuntu. I've tried the egg on Xubuntu, Kubuntu, and Kicebuntu, but they don't work. So it must be the desktop engine Gnome causing this egg.

I think you could get rid of the fish with xkill. Or if you have the process pid, with kill.
