Default Sun Coral propagation?

Hello,
I want to start a bit of coral farming on Sun Corals, but first I need one!
Someones knoes where I could get a little frag of it? My LFS doesnt have any for know... And if I order one It will probably be a big one, not only a frag, so probalby expensif too... (I guess if I dont find any frag I'll still try to order one...) So any ideas?

So for the propagation, I heard 2 things:
-That this coral produces larva for reproducing himself... and that this can be provocated by stoping water flow(pumps) a couple of hours each 15 days...
-It produce new polyps at his base... So can I just frag them by cutting a couple of polyps???

What could be the possible fastest method??? Anyone with experience with those??

THanks
