Iv unfortunately lost my first fish :( Everything else really is thriving as well. My problem now is that I can’t reach it as it’s deep in the rock work. Iv tried long tweezers and just can’t get it.

I don’t want to take the rock work out but also don’t want to leave the fish in the rock

What are my options? How long would it take to decompose? Would my hermits try to get into it?
 
The hermits will definitely try to get to it. Ammonia would be your only worry if you can’t get it. Maybe try to siphon it out or use a syringe to suck it out or blow it out

How big is your tank? Just keep an eye on your ammonia if you have a rather small tank or when it is recently setup. Your crabs, snails, copepods and bacteria should be more than sufficient to take care of it. Sorry for your loss
