    Not sure if RTN always kills but it seems like both corals are making a nice recovery. Better PE and more visible skin over the skeleton.

    One on left is the damaged frag, right side is the other half. They were originally two on the same plug

    If you see any RTN ie. necrotic tissue, you can use airline tubing to siphon off the dead/necrotic tissue and giving the coral a bath with an Iodine solution like TM Pro Coral Cure or similar product is likely the best way to treat the problem as the iodine will act as an antiseptic and hopefully kill prevent the spread of the tissue necrosis.
