    I bought an open brain coral awhile back and got a two for one deal. There were two separate open brains on the piece. One is dominant and the other just comes off the side. The small one is probably the size of silver dollar. What would you suggest doing to split the two? Should I be able to just break it off with some pliers? Thanks.

    I wouldn't worry about it both will do just great as is. You will most likely need a Dremel to separate them.
