Fragging a big rock???

[reeftanker04]

I definitely made a mistake with my last purchase at my LFS. I bought a 8-10 LB rock with a bunch of Zoas on it. The bottom line is that it doesn't fit my tank too well and I need to break it up. I was going to use it as sort of a centerpiece but it doesn't have the color I want.

My question is how can I frag this rock and preserve a decent amount of Zoas in the process? Is this a hammer and chisel job? Any advice would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance!!!

Id go with a chisel or a dremel saw, very cool rock though.

Thanks man, I actually thought there were mostly bright orange zoas but it turned out to be around 5-6 different types. The only drawback is that one of them happen to be a pretty dull orange which make up a majority of the polyps.

You could drill some holes in it where you want to break it and then chisel it. Nice rock BTW.
