I live in Tampa, FL.. I saw it on Bay News 9.. perhaps that site? I don't know.. I just heard that when you break the coral and put it on a little square in a tank it will multiply ten times faster and they do it my sawing the coral like a potato turning into a chip? I don't know..

Welcome =). Aquaculture? About 70% of usa saltwater livecoral sales is done through cutting coral, then growing, then reselling ect. If i answered your question correctly, bay9 i guess havnt figured that out yet.

It is called coral fragging. Not sure about it growing 10 times faster.

I read the artical. Before i myself can believe it, i want to see it. Id like to know what technology advances can grow coral 10x as fast. If they were really concerned with people taking coral from the ocean they would provide with know how so us as hobbyist and suppliers can accomplish this as well
