snowball

well thats basicly it i tried feeing them a kingmealworm squished up hoping they would start ripping apart the flesh although instead one of my barbs cought the worm and ran around with it in its mouth all day. I can still see the bottom part of the mealworm in its mouth it was about a pretty big 0.7in one he swollowed. Now his mouth wont shut.
I was hoping to wait 2-3 days before taking some action hoping the worm would go threw the barb or it naturally deteriot on its on(bad spelling).
The barb is only about 1.2 inch long so... any ideas?

Good morning. Personally, as long as the fish is upright and swimming well. I'd let nature take it's course. Keep us posted.
