Chamaedorea Plumosa fungal infection?

About 6 weeks ago I planted a 15 gal triple C.Plumosa. The two smaller palms are growing fast but I noticed the growth point of the tallest showing a mix of black and brown fungal growth. I also noticed the newest leaf was growing back into the palm and was a mushy brownish color. I pulled out the frond(see pic) and have been pouring hydrogen peroxide drown the crown. 
Not much experience with this species. I’ve had 2 Archontophoenix bounce back from pink rot( but with noticeable damage) is this a palm that will recover from this in time?

Thanks for the help!

Perhaps start with some hydrogen peroxide into the crown area then maybe a systemic treatment as well.

In the past, I have had good luck with using the peroxide.

Thanks! Any specific systemic that has worked well for you?
