Thats exactly what it is. I took that one and turned it into 5 frags. @fishguy242 has one @Roush2000 has one and the other 3 are adding heads in my frag tank.

How do you cut them?

How do you cut them?

These had long bodies on them when I first got them. I used bone cutters and clipped them. The skeletons are surprisingly tough, not like a lot of the euphies, try the same thing with those and they crush and splinter...

Wow. Figured they would crush. How did you figure out it was hard enough. Want to start fragging some coral

The honest answer is... just went for it knowing if it didn't work that I could lose a head or 2. I now also have a dremel that is good for cutting things like this. Makes a bit of a mess though. I have lots of frags. I haven't done any shipping though dont really know where to start there. Always down for trades to...

Ty... once my new "frag" tank is built ill be switching gears a little... I will have frags to trade but I'm going to also start growing out some colonies of some of what I have... im hoping to have my 250? (Maybe bigger) setup or at least started next summer. Lots has gotten in the way but it will happen next year. I want to have some big peices to go in them once its done.

Would love to have a drag tank down the road. Something about the shallow tanks are awesome.
My thought always was grow out some coral for the next upgrade. Downfall is upgrade might be ready before the coral. Oh well fish will be happy
