There's no better way to frag green star polyps than by force!

For this I simply knock small sections off of the rock holding the GSP using a hammer and chisel.

This technique may also be used with other soft, matting corals such as zoanthids, palythoas, xenia, anthelia and more.

I love the method, I hate frag plugs. Most definitely going this route when I frag out my gsp. Thank you for sharing.

I also think this adds value to the frag. Being covered in beneficial corraline algae as well. In a healthy tank both the corraline and the gsp would spread like wildfire.
