    I have LOTS of Anthelia, Zooanthids, and Mushrooms. Is there any way I can frag these without breaking the rock they're on?

    Take them out of the water, definitely get good gloves and eye protection when dealing with the zooanthids as they are toxic, buy an exacto knife or scalpel and cut them off. Get some rubble amd place it in a small rubbermaid container along with the new frags and cover with Bridalveil or similar material so they don't get blown around the tank until they attach to the rubble.

    This little container goes in the tank, I'm assuming?
