Do you need special equipment to frag ? Like I have a huge toadstool It looks like it is splitting since its so big like 10+ spread...In my LFS they sell a 3 inch toadstool for 75 bux..I can prob make easy 4 of those on plugs..but I have no idea what to do. The only corals I have ever fragged before was branching corals, like hammers and Alveoporas I also fragged a leather tree but that broke off into 2 pieces..any help ? I'm worried I might harm the coral.
 
there are videos on youtube on how to frag. search frag coral or frag leather, also with leathers they are very tough I recently cut one in halt and both halves are doing very well to date.
I was also very hesitant but research and you will be fine. since my first fragging experience with my leather I am still observing and learning.
I have a short thread about my leather here if your interested

I will update pics on Monday. None the less keep asking and searching to make sure you are doing the right hting before you so anything.

good luck

i would reccomend selling / trading to other reefers over LFS, because youre likely to get the most $$$ this way. a LFS will usually only give you a third of they price that think they can sell it for.

and if your LFS is selling for 75 bucks for a 3inch one (way over priced IMHO) you should be able to get 40 for a 3incher if there's no where else to buy stuff in your area. but considering where you are there is probably other places near you. You can search for a local saltwater fish club, usually a good place to sell your wares locally.
