Ok, so I received this frag of ORA pearlberry, amazing coloration by the way, it came colorful so I thought it was very healthy. It came in two pieces, 1 large one and a small one.

The large one got RTN really fast and right now is about to say goodbye forever, the small piece was placed in the same plug and is healthy and is not touching the bigger RTN piece but its close.

It should be RTN induced by shipping stress because everything else is healthy in my tank.

Is RTN contagious?, should I remove the dying piece?, it basically only has its tips alive and maybe not for long, it won´t recover right?

well, I trashed the infected frag, it was pointless to keep it, I just wish the remaining frag will not get infected, because it was almost touching the infected frag.

I would remove all the dead piece,& keep just what has tissue left,& cross your fingers.
