Is the dark brown area really soft and loose? If so, siphoning it off would be the least traumatic way of stopping the spread. Use a small diameter flexible length of tubing and siphon the tissue off of the coral into a bucket then replace the removed water with newly mixed saltwater. If that works the healthy living tissue will eventually grow back over the dead areas in time. That approach worked very well for me when I received this coral which spent too much time in a very small amount of water.

The dark brown parts are hard, I noticed last night alot of "bugs" all over it, especially in that area, which is good, considering I have a Mandarin Goby, but probably not so good for the coral. I would like to at least give part of it a chance for recovery, will fragging the good part prevent that part from dieing by preventing the decay from spreading?

It probably will. But nothing is for certain. Try it and let us know if it works.
