My ant colony has a died worker in the back of the test tube and I am scared that it would start to rot and kill my colony. My ant's aren't moving the worker.Should I be concerned

If you are really worried, I would just connect [with tape or something] a clean fresh test-tube setup and make it dark [tin-foil works for this] and then let them move on their own.
