    The skeleton on a frogspawn is not that hard. You could easily crack it off with a side cutting pliers. It's common to twist a pliers between the heads so that it breaks in a longer sliver to make it easy to place it into a hole in a rock. There are many videos on YouTube on how to frag a frogspawn.

    garden pruners? sure

    jig saw? sure

    pvc cutter? possibly

    Ummm, the cleaner shrimp is probably eating the dying tissue, which isn't a bad thing. IME, iodine dips have not helped. Better to cut your losses.
