Koi possibly ate a rock

I have a pond with 2 koi and a few small common goldfish. I've had these kois for almost 4 years now, and they've grown a lot (got them when they were about 4 inches and now just over 12 inches.

I have rocks in the plant area in one section of the pond. Early, I noticed a rock stuck in one of the koi's mouths (unable to close, stuck open) and let it get it out, which was unsuccessful. I used a net to scoop it out and I THINK as I was trying to scoop him out, the net forced and pushed the rock in, but I gently checked with my finger and didn't feel anything. I'm pretty sure he just swallowed that rock, but he's not on his side or anything but just opening and closing his mouth nonstop ( I usually see this happen only after feeding, so I'm guessing he swallowed that rock). After an hour, still swimming and mouth opening and closing, not eating as the others eat. Is there anything I could do in my situation? Has anyone encountered a similar situation? It's probably deep in his stomach now....

Thanks in advance!! - really don't want the worst to happen since I've watched it grow over the years.

I've just placed an order for the Corolla Cross SE hybrid in the US.

My wait time is estimated at 1-2 months, but I literally can't wait! What are some features of the car, and what things to do once it comes?

A couple of questions I have while I wait.

  1. Is the self-driving reliable, and do you feel safe using it?

  2. How long did you have to wait for the car?

  3. How much gas was in the tank when the car came?

  4. Any issues or things to look out for, like defects, etc?

  5. Any recommended accessories/ products for the car?

I haven't bought a car in years and am just very excited!

Thanks for all the help in advance!
