Hi
sorry to hear about your sick yuma
I had the same thing happen to one of my yumas the other night. I bit the buttet and figuring it was a gonner if I didn't try something.
I removed it from the tank ( rock and all ) and I cut the yuma off the rock right done to the base. The melting yuma really really smelled bad. Rotten flesh YUK!!!. I scraped all the gooy rotten fleash off so that there was only a thin layer of base attached to the rock. I then took a new razor and cut this into a few separate pieces, hoping that if if there was still some melting at leasat one section might survive. I put the rock into a container with bridal viel to keep things from getting to it and put this into light water movement at the bottom of the tank but still where light can hit it indirectly.
It has been a few days now and it looks like the small pieces of the base attached to the rock are starting to grow. I am crossing my fingers. Hopefully the pieces ( 3 of them ) will grow up to be as nice as the original.
HTH
Jim
