I am hoping to get advice about fragging a Montipora Capricornus. I have never (intentionally) fragged any of my SPS corals, but I want to frag my green M.cap. I epoxied it too high on my rock work when it was a wee frag, and now it is casting too much shade. Since I can't remove it from the tank I was wondering how to underwater-frag the upright sections I want to remove. It really looks like I could just grasp the sections between thumb and finger and snap them off, but I am worried this will damage the polyps or shatter the section (I am hoping to get the sections off more or less intact so I can place them lower on my rock work). Is this an okay way to do it, or are other techniques better.
Thanks in advance for any advice,
Kurt.
I'll try attaching photos of the M. cap.
