How to frag a Duncan

[Imbarrie]

I have two Duncan coral that are getting too crowded and probably need fragging.
Do I just cut these at the base with fragging shears?

I use my dremel on high speed and cut at the base stay as far away from the heads as possible then glue to rock or frag plug....

I agree a dremel is a much better bet. If you can get a good grip on a not too thick branch low down towards the base you can probably use the clippers, but the skeleton is very dense and hard to cut. You also risk some splintering.

Also keep an eye on that hermit sitting on there they tend to eat corals like duncans I have seen them do it.

Use a band saw or a dremel. The skeleton is SOLID.
