You have to be especially careful with this coral as it is very sensitive to handling and the bruises that result can become necrotic quickly.

I wouldn't use scissors, get a really sharp knife. Take it out and put it upside down on a cutting board then trim around the edge with long smooth strokes. You could attach the pieces by either piercing them with a plastic tooth pic and securing that to a rock or letting them sit in a tray of rubble for a few weeks with low flow so they attach themselves.

If you see any black patches on the coral or the frags cut it away ASAP. It doesn't take long for that to spread with this species.
