Goby choking!!! HELP!

[Fishman007]

I fed my yellow watchman goby his weekly shrimp pellet today and he started breathing very slowly and has his mouth gaping open, i can see what seems to be it stuck in his throat.
How can i get it out?

Its clogging his throught, and its not really breaking up. Also if it helps its a omega one brand.

Surely it would soften or dissolve before it causes him harm??? Good grief So sorry hope someone can help!

just for future feedings, try soaking it in water for 5-10 minutes before giving it to him, I do this with all my food for this exact reason.
