How do you frag a Pagoda?

DarthOcellaris · 08-24-2007, 10:13 AM

I'd like to break my Pagoda cup into about 3 or four pieces if it's possible. How do you go about doing this? Is it as simple as taking a hacksaw and cutting it up ( as long as it's hacked cleanly of course

) or taking a chisel to it and breaking it?

I'm curious cause I want to thin my tank out and share some of my corals

)

well i just wanted a pic so i could see the best point to frag it at, no matter how you frag it, its going to kill some edges, just break a peice off & lay it in a rock crack, or cement it to a rock ledge. should be fine, cut it anyway you see fit, as long as your tank & coral is healthy, it should do fine

I saw a fragging demo at IMAC 06 Calfo and Borneman used a wet saw (tile saw) to frag other LPS corals. It was pretty cool they started at the base/underneath and just ran it through
