So I've never fragged anything before and I've watched numerous videos on fragging tonight, but what I've watched isn't answering my question.
So here goes. I have 2 things I'd like to frag:
1) a large rock covered in watermelon zoas, probably 100+. They have taken over the rock & are working their way around a green cap monti I have growing off the side.
2) I have 2 rocks covered in wild caught, large polyp green palys (I assume). they are about an inch or so across, maybe a touch more. The rocks are totally covered and there is no more room for anything to grow (each rock is the size of a softball, without the palys.
I don't want to chip away rock from either of these, how do I frag the zoas or palys off? Can I just use an exacto & cut them at their base?
(I will have gloves on, new exacto blades, over a bowl, not the tank & glue them to plugs)
thx!
