Yeah it’s definitely salvageable.. I love those been looking for one for a while.. I had one when I was a kid but overwatering got mine too

Just chop off the rot and wait for it to callus then propagate straight back into a cactus or Epiphytic Soil. I use Better Gro Bromeliad Blend for my jungle cacti. Has yet to do me wrong.
