How do you frag rics that have babies all over the main rock??
Is it easy or risky of killing them??
Florida or Yuma?
Floridas you can cut a chunk and rubberband it to another rock, scrape it off the rock and move it (another will spring up where it was), place a piece of rock beside it and wait 'till it attaches...
Yuma, on the other hand does not respond well to being cut, torn, nudged or otherwise manhandled. They usually drop kids whilst on the move. One of my yumas dropped two after we moved.

He does not know what kind they are. I have not seen them and since he does not know what to do I think I will leave well enough alone. I don't want to play around with someone elses corals.
Thanks for the reply though
The easiest way to tell them apart is the mouth. Florida has no tentacles on the mouth. Yuma has tentacles on the mouth. Also, Yuma tends to have a symmetrical pattern to the tentacles, where Florida does not.
Here's a pic of each...first, Yuma
Then Florida...
