How do I frag this guy?

Dremel or what.....I would like to make 2 or 3 pieces of this guy if possible!

He is about 7" around! I have had him as one of my first begging corals!

This is n old pic but at least you know what I coral I am referring to.

use a dremel and chop from the bottom.

What would you say the most pieces to frag him to and be reasonable.....say 1/4 it into 4 pieces?

Or just 1/2

you can seperate it into 2-3 polyp frags if you wanted to. just make the cuts clean.

What type of bit on the dremel?

Also should I do it in water in a small bowl?

i would use a standard cutoff disk. you can do it in or out of the water. he will be fine out of the water for a few minutes.

...or a tile saw. BBBZZZZZ!!!!! Works great actually... but with the dremel you can get more precision.

Use a small angle grinder witha masonry disc.

I use a hacksaw and a screwdriver for fragging brains.
