Thanks for reaching out about Hidesy. A veterinary visit is highly recommended. Clove oil is an approved anesthetic in fish and can be acquired at many health food stores. If you anesthetized the fish, you might be able to extract and stop the choking. First, try and find a veterinarian, now. Good luck.
