I bought a finger leather coral from Razz, and it's JUST a little too large for my tank. (thanks again Razz, I like this one a lot)
It was just moved from his system to mine. It's displaying it's polyps throughout the day so I'm thinking it likes it's new home. Our water parameters are almost exactly the same.
I want to trim off some of it's fingers. Any advice for a first time fragger? I'm assuming I just cut off the fingers with scissors, and then thread them to a plug using fishing line and a needle? Do I have this right?
Should I do it with the coral outside of the aquarium, or is cutting it inside fine? There IS a stalk underneath all that. Should I try to get some of the stalk when I frag it?
