fraging tongue coral

bad habit

Anyone know how to frag a tongue coral? it's getting to big and I was wondering if anyone knew how to frag it.
 
Tagging along. I'd like to frag my Polyphyilla as well andwould like to hear if anyone has ever tried it.
 
im not 100% on this but have heard of people simply breaking them in half and they eventually heal into two seperate corals. but ive never actually seen it done so im hesitant to try it with my 12incher
 
I used the following method with great results.

Take a medium width elastic and place it on the coral where you would like to make the cut. The elastic should be tight, but not too tight as to cut into the coral. Let this sit for 1 ~ 2 weeks and then remove the elastic and cut the coral along the line with a cut off wheel on a dremel. Works great!
