fragging corals

[YoCamron]

hello everyone... i have had a pencil urchin for the past year in my reef tank, and today was the day he finally decided to much on my corals. i always hoped this day would never come, but here we are. I luckily caught him before he ate my kenya tree, but he ate all of my xenia coral. he chewed my xenia tree halfway through at around the base of it. now my question is, should i frag it? i have never cut corals before, so i am not sure what to do... should i cut it from above where he chewed it or would that harm the coral? thinking of fragging this has got me really interested in fragging, so i bought some razor blades and coral glue, i am gonna try it on my zoa's and GSP soon. here is a picture of the the eaten part of the kenya tree... let me know what you think

Kenya Tree corals are pretty durable. As long as it's still opening up nicely then I would just leave it alone. That little blemish should heal given time.
