How to frag a frogspawn?

[Coralgurl]

I have a huge frogspawn taking up prime space in my tank. My new clowns are hosting it so I would like to keep a bit and sell the others. The frog isn't a branching type, it's shell is in the shape of an "H". So how do I frag it, what tools do I need etc? Or am I better to find someone who knows how do it for me? Thanks

its not easy but..... take a rubber band and put it around the wall frogspawn/ hammer in the area in which you plan to frag it....... Leave the rubber band in place for a couple of weeks....... The polyps will recede on that part of the frogspawn/hammer........ After all the polyps start extending to their former 'glory' you can take the frogspawn/ hammer out of the tank, remove the rubber band and run the wall through a band saw (like the Inland Band Saw) or a Dremel.

Really thats hardcore? I usually just take it out and throw it at the floor and have multiple frags
