Anyone know how to propagate sun corals? I got one about 2 weeks ago and it has more than doubled the polyp count. I have been feeding it every day. it has about 40 polyps on it now and I see about 10 more that are about to pop up.
 
I've taken individual polyps off my colony and glued to another rock. Mine are healthy and starting to sprout new growth after less than 2 weeks.
Look for polyps along the edges that are separate from the others and pry them off carefully. You have to try and get a little of the surrounding rock with the polyp.
 
Feed it really, really well and keep an eye around your tank. They will release planula larvae that will settle around the tank.
