Bro Evan,

How's your pink yuma so far? Been quite a few months liao.

Bro Dispar ,Weilong, DB and all other sucessful Pink yuma owners,

Can pls show pic of your pink yuma? Just wan to take a look if its the same species. From personal experience, certain species dun do well in particular condition. A combine gallery may help to solve the mystery.

I tried 3 pink yuma already... all melted... (got one still melting now..)

Ard 1 month.....still keeping my fingers cross

Ard 2 weeks.....this time round.... i went for bigger ones hoping they can take more stress and eventually stabilise....... still keeping my fingers crossed.

Nice yuma.

I wonder how sensitive is pink yuma to the colour temperature of the lights used in our aquarium? Could it be one of the reasons for the high rate of melting cases??

I kept mine under 150W ~14K MH and placed in a position away from direct light near the sandbed since the day I brought back from lfs. However, still not successful. I have other yumas (not the pink kind) that seems to do well under the above conditions, some even under direct lighting. Really puzzling.

I have seen pink yuma in lfs that opens nicely under blue light only .... that led me to think if its the colour temperature of the light that they are sensitive to. We know that deeper in the ocean (if its true that they are found at a greater depth), the lights are filtered leaving primarily the blue spectrum. Hmmm.....any thoughts?

i keep mine at ard 5 inch above my tank's bottom of 2 ft height blasting only 3 T5 tubes and its expanding really really huge.. (partly due to target feeding it)

I miss mine too... sold it away .. which i really regretted.. though it mine fetch a gd $$$ really wished that I have not sold it!

Money can't buy rare & big yumas which make owners happy

i have pink Yuma (got it from Marinelife)..i just added another 3-4 additional pink Yuma (also from Marinelife) yesterday..

So far i have very LITTLE chances with other Yuma except Pink. My bright Orange yuma flew off.(cant find it) One light orange which detach from its LR was in my mini beta tank waiting for it to attach to another rock.

It was believe Yuma cant stand strong flow. But my Pink Yuma is surviving.... (keep my finger cross) Others just flew off and need to relocated at lower flow area.

Qn) I am using a Atman 150 MH and just got my 250MH..cant wait to blast it...

but don know if my Yuma able to make it? Thus i place the newly procured P.Yuma near the Sandbed. My tank is 3ft height.

Strange Encounter:

I was doing my Epoxy and waiting for it to cured then place the P.Yuma onto sandbed. Need to place the coral on the bottom after curing. It was around 0100hrs, i feel someone looking at me and i think i heard someone calling my name (btw i slept only 3 hrs yesterday) and i just place the Yuma into a betta box and went straight to bed dismissing my hallucination, but my Niki (Mini Schnauzer) came to me and kept barking and looking in my direction when i enter the bedroom . That really scared me off.

btw...any Target feeding tools...that can help me to reach the YUma which is 3ft away.... (that the cons of having a 3ft height tank)

Have a feeling that very low current and FL light is the key factor to keep yuma success. I don't see any problem with my yuma until I upgrade my lighting to T5 and later to 150MH.
