I think my Duncan is choking on something

[daftwazzock]

There was a piece of... something, looked like a shed invert skeleton in its mouth for a few days so I gently removed it but it still looks bad. Its been like this for a week now with one of its mouths open and tentacles stubby. The other head looks normalish.

No other corals show signs of distress. What can I do? Try to go in its mouth with tweezers? Let it die?

It's impossible for a coral to choke. They (Duncans) will consume invert molts, algae,......The issue is not something within the oral opening. The coral does not look close to death. Check all parameters.

Was hoping to read about a coral Heimlich maneuver. You could have irritated removing that debris. Give a few days, looks otherwise healthy to me. If I'd just seen the pic alone, would've said normal feeding response.
