So I have a chalice that I want.to frag. I just got a 545 diamond wheel bit for my dremel. I have seen videos of people fraging with a dremel. my question is, where to cut. The chalice is growing off of the rock as if it is plating. Is it ok to cit where it is hanging off the rock. I will be cutting just the skeleton and flesh if I do. It is kind of thin. Here is pic. Any word of advice or experience would help.

Try to cut between the eyes if possible. Dremel will injure some of the flesh where the cut is, but should be ok. Dip cut frags in a dip solution(Iodine or other) and glue to a plug/Rock. Place new frags low in tank and let them heal.
