I got these Yumas about 4 days ago and one was looking really bad...

the other one was not as bad but was folded in half at the mouth like a taco attached to itself

a few hours of drip acclimation and they began to unfurl

today they are looking 90% better but still not attached to anything. I put one in my rock work and it is unfolding very nicely and appears to be a monster once it attaches and spreads out.

the other one is still in a cup. the mouth has tightened up considerable and it looks to be a survivor.,,

Nice yumas......Just keep an eye on the one that was gaping.....That is usually a bad sign....Not to say it can't or won't make it just a bad sign......Keep an eye on them and photoacclimate them to your lighting, most important thing to do when it comes to yumas as they are or can be very sensitive to high light......

The yuma in the first pic looks like it has some eggs in it......

Yea my lights aren't super bright but the one i put at the top of my tank is completely shaded by a rock i figure when he decides he wants more light he'll crawl out of the shade. And you said eggs? Do Yumas disperse eggs?
