Has anyone fragged a fat-head dendro before?

This is an older picture of my fat-head dendro. I have been waiting for it to grow some more... it now has around 7 heads, but I don't see a good and long entry point like a frog spawn for me to use a dremel to cut in.

So I am assuming I go in with a dremel of where I drew the red lines?
Tips anyone? Thank you.

Yes you will dremel or use bone cutters and cut the skeleton far enough away from the fleshy part.
 
Hey give us an update picture once you’ve fragged it and let us know how it went. I have a fat head dendro right now also that I plan on dragging in the future so I want to see how this turned out:)
 
Oh man. The fragging did not go well. I spoke with another reefer and he said the polyp/stalk might've been too small still. So the polyp that I fragged ended up just deteriorating.
If you have a big and long enough polyp then apparently you can just cut right through kind of like a frogspawn.
 
Darn, sorry to hear that. At least you can give advice for other reefers to prevent them from making a mistake like that in the future. Thank you:) :(
