I have this sinularia in my tank for 11 years and I want to cut it apart but I'm wondering with all the exotic corals out there is anyone going to want one. So I'm not sure if I should frag large or small any thoughts?

Wow... are you just trying to make room? Looks like you have more than enough for lots of frags large and small.

Yeah I'm trying to get rid of it but I'm not sure if I should frag it large and bring it to a LFS or make little ones for people that might want it. You just don't see many of these for sale. People want color although it is pinkish.

Nice piece. If you frag it I'd be interested in a small one.

It looks like there is enough separation at the base(s) of the colony to just cut the rock apart with a hacksaw and you'd end up with several nice sized colonies.
You wouldn't have to cut it through, if you cut it a bit, then put a flat head screw driver into the cut and give it a whack, the rock should split. All whacking should be done outside of the tank though

That is certainly pretty. I'd be intereted if you fragged it. Being so large, you probably have enough to do both and keep a section in your tank too.

Beautiful piece! I would also be interested if you decide to frag it.......
