So I've had a relatively small yuma that I inherited from a tank that was going downhill.

It's been a couple months and the yuma hasn't grown much, if at all to be honest. Is there anything I can do to help it? It's so small that I feel as though target feeding it is impossible. It's in a 15g, 2 T5 lights (one atinic and one 10,000k)

Looks really bleached. Maybe put it in some low flow and low light. Some shade or something

You can use a soda bottle with the bottom cut off to target feed it. Place the bottle over it and use a turkey baster to fill the bottle with food. But it looks really bleached so that may not help. I agree you should move it to a really low light low flow spot

I moved it last night under a little bit of shade and blocked from flow. I'll see how it does within the next couple days.

My yuma that do the best are ones that are in a really shady area and low flow The ones in the direct light (and subject to more flow) do not look at good. Unfortunately they are on a large base rock and so they will get moved next time I do a rearrangement (big project for a rainy day). Good luck.
