How to frag a wall hammer?

[b4tn]

I have a wall hammer that is very soon going to be to big. It's nearly doubled in size in less than a year. I have heard you cannot frag wall hammers. Any suggestions?

You heard correctly. [emoji6] if you want to frag anything euphyllia it needs to be the branching variety. They're too susceptible to infection if cut, and you may end up killing the entire colony.

Yeah that's what I have been told. I get emotionally attached to my corals lol. I guess when it outgrows it's space I will have to sell it and get the branching variety next time.

not to change topic but how do we get a frag of these if they are not able to frag... do they eventually "split"?

Good question! I'm not sure.

I got a piece of a green wall hammer. The wall looked cut in half, well one side was perfectly straight.
