honestly, the only person that can really answer that is you.
do you think its doing well?
If yes continue on to next question if no dont frag.
do you think your tank has been established long ewnough to handle any influx of toxins that may or may not happen after fragging?
If yes continue on to next question if no dont frag.
do you think you can cut something slimy and hard to manipulate?
If yes continue on to next question if no dont frag.
can you afford to lose the coral you are about to frag?
If yes continue on to next question if no dont frag.
do you think you can stop thinking about it and just do it? <--- thats the key question. the hardest thing I ever learned about fragging, is "do it" the rights and wrongs will work themselves out. learn what you can before hand (there are multiple threads I know you have read them you have posted on them. you're young, make an omlette (dont be suprised if you break an egg or two)

I hate the last question because I am ready to frag my best peice of monti. I would die if it ate it but there is no scare on monti frags.

Hey, today im going to frag my red mushroom. Should i take it out and frag it on a table with a razor and leave it on the table so it can slime up a bit then put it back into the tank or frag it and right away put it in the tank? Its a 8 gallon bio cube.

mushrooms I always just toss back in. they are pretty tough. leaving it on the table exposed to air isnt going to help it any.
