Massive colt coral what do

First off, I have a pretty big colt coral in my 75 it stretches from probably 2 inch off the ground to the very top of the tank and it's arms span anywhere from 10 inches wide probably more just guessing with 4 thick stems, my pink skunk nem fish lives in it like its his anemone since the clown has control of the BTA
I know people frag stuff like this i'm just wondering how because I have had this for a long time and its huge now and I wouldn't want to hurt it I love this thing
any tips?
It would probably look better if it was possible to frag and put maybe 2-3 smaller sections around the tank or transfer to other tank and grow out

my apologies for terrible spelling + grammar

Thanks guys :

 

Is colt coral like a Kenya tree? I used to have a Kenya tree but it grew too fast and I didn't want it anymore. When I did have it, I just cut it with scissors lol. It was only attached to one piece of rock so it was easy to remove. I then super glued it to another small piece of rock, it didn't seem to mind. Maybe someone who is more familiar with softies can be more of a help lol.

 

Thats correct. I have cut them...just agitate them a bit so they withdraw and expel most of their water....use a sharp tool, you want it quick and clean.
you can super glue, or just rubber band to a piece of rubble...or both..then generally put the new frag out of direct current until it attaches. These type of corals grow like weeds..you should not have a problem. Good luck.

 

Remember, no rusty tools in the tank! If you do stick metal in the tank, remember to rinse it with freshwater (preferably RO/DI) afterwards and completely dry it or else it will rust and you will not be able to stick it in the tank again...

 

Excellent advice!!!! I paid a lot of money for my fragging tools and I'm financially motivated to make them last.

It is true that ferrous materials will oxidize. (i.e. Rust) Rusty tools in the tank are fine. (I PROMISE). A lot of people actually put Oxidized Ferrous Granules into their tank to adsorb (not absorb, chemically adsorb) Phosphorus and Silica. The hobby calls it GFO. (Rowaphos, Phosban, and MANY others).

 

thanks for the great advice everyone will try this weekend
