Yuma's

[HOBrien]

What advice can yall give me on keeping the Yumas I have coming in on thursday from BlueZoo?

Keep them in shade for a while as they are susceptible to photo shock and will wither and melt on you in quick order. Once you place them leave them alone to settle as they don't like to be moved around a whole lot. There are threads on here that have discussed yumas quite a bit.....One is called Yumas harder then SPS.....I think there is a great amount of info in that thread....

Thank you for the input. So place them in the sade for how long before moving them into the open?

I would keep them shaded(not complete shade more like low indirect light) till the show signs of reaching for more light and then slowly move them in incremental steps till they are in the light.....They are very tricky creatures.

Thanks again for the help.
