So I rescued and split up these two plants about a week ago. But in the last couple days the one has leaves turning yellow. No pests that I found. Any ideas? Should I just take the leaves off \& hope the others don’t do the same? Or are they savable still?  
The new leaf on the younger one is yellowed too 🤔🤔🤔🤷🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️

Maybe it didn’t get enough healthy roots in the split. Give it some time to recover.

They were two separate plants that had roots rapped together slightly. But there was lot of rotten roots. So maybe it’s in shock. 🤷🏻‍♀️  
But those leaves probably will only get worse. 🤷🏻‍♀️ I’ll see how they are in the next couple days I guess.
