I have a few torches that now have several heads. How do I frag them? Can I use a Dremmel to cut the heads up? Never done this before so need to be sure not to damage the torches.
 
U should move the coral to get the polyps to retract as much as possible. Make the cut down the branch away from the fleshy part of the head and It should b ok. Jake adams has a good video on fragging euphyllia
 
Some people might be better with bone cutters than I am, but I've had a couple euphyllia stems crumble when trying to frag with bone cutters - they can be brittle - so be careful. I'd use a dremel if you have one, to saw through as low as possible on the stems. Getting the polyps to retract before hand is also good advice...
