Best sps bone cuttercutter to buy

Jmareef1022 · Jun 7, 2018

Was wanting to frag some of my acros and need something to cut it with. Almost pulled the trigger yesterday and bought the medium sps bone cutter from brs. Does anyone have any advice I need one to cut off frag plugs and acros. Is there one better than the other.

Thanks Jose

eBay has some as well. Surgical grade stainless steel.

Hey flipper what should I search for on ebay, so many options.

6" would work in most situations. Without lock.

As with any stainless steel instruments, after use in a saltwater environment, rinse with tap water very well and dry completely with compressed air if possible. This will keep them from rusting long term.

The BRS frag set has a nice pair. I use mine all the time.

The compressed air is genius!

I have also been using for a long time with great results is tile nippers. Way way heavier duty than the other stuff. Also great for busting up frag plugs.

This is the best I've found for taking frags off the plug. The C shaped, non sharpened, blade holds the plug in place, and the sharpened D shaped blade slides across the top of the plug cutting off the frag. Suggestions by others work better for fraging the coral itself.
