After about 6 years in the hobby I fragged my first corals this weekend. Had too much crowding in my euphyllia side of my tank so decided to cut back my frogspawn and hammer. Cut about a dozen heads each using a generic dremel and harbor freight diamond cutting disc. Easily cut like butter but think I need a plastic shield to work under to keep the splatter down.

Here is a photo of one of the hammer frags. Do you think it is better to frag as a single head or multiple heads?
 
I guess I could always go back and make more single heads. I ran out of the sample plugs that I had on hand and had to order some.
