I had an RTN issue with my Steve Elias stag frag. It was more of a mini colony than a frag and had been in the tank thriving for a while. Recently it touched up against a validia and the validia began to grow over one of the stag branches. I paid little mind to it and figured they would settle in; worst case scenario, I thought I would have to frag that one branch. Seemingly overnight the Steve Elias RTN'd. Yesterday I broke off a frag and glued it elsewhere in the tank and it seems to be fine.

My question is, do you think that touching the validia caused the RTN issue? All other actos are fine, as is the frag I relocated.
