fill up a large bowl with water and take him out of the tank and put it in the bowl. be careful not to cover the gills and gently take out the stones with a pair of small tweezerws if that dosent work take the fish in a ziploc bag and fill with water and go to your vet.
hope your fish gets them out!

Give him a day or two before you try anything, he will most likely work it around and get them out whout any help. If you end up having to help him, always keep him wrapped in a clean towel wet from the tank and work as quickly as possible to remove the stones with tweezers.

He may just be moving the stones and spitting them out again.My cichlids do this all the time.If you watch carefully you may see him spit them out.

Maybe tweezers. But he might be too slippery for that.
