Can this be fragged?
 

This closed brain has grown to cover the entire rock (or skeleton), and also the underside. I have another type of closed brain which is green. It has also covered up the rock (or skeleton).
I am wondering what can be done with these.

Can they be fragged, or whatever :confused: :question:

If you have a dremel you should be able too... slice er up. :biggrin: You'd lose some of course... but it should be ok. Its what I would do anyways..

I suggest you use a band saw - just set the speed on very high, make sure the blade isn't too rusty, and run it through. I have tried a dremel on these brains and it can be messy.

Good Luck,

Agreed, if you can get your hands on a band saw that would be perfect for sure... nice and quick.. the dremel is cheap.. but it can get away on you causing more of a mess..

Mine just grew onto a rock beside it and fragged itself.

Perhaps I don't understand the structure of these things. Is what they grow on a part of the animal (skeleton) :question: , or is it a big polyp with many mouths growing on a rock :question:

Its just a big skeleton as far as I am aware.. but it is also growing on the rock.

I'd suggest that you trade it for a smaller piece somewhere.

Well it is not in the way or anything. I could just let it be, and see what happens. :eek:

hey bob,
if you frag it, i want a piece!
