It does help to have an assistant with big Corals. I was meaning Mushrooms, I've never Fragged a Toadstool. I have heard that when fragging any Leather, there is a greater risk of bacterial infection. If it's attached to a thin, and small enough rock or base, I would cut or break the base, and then set it in such a way that gravity causes a slow split. In this way, it heals as it is fragged, over a period of time. That's what I did with my Bubble Coral, I broke the base skeleton area, tilted it on it's side, and after a couple weeks, two good sized frags had dropped off, without breaking any bubbles.
