If you were to cut them to make frags you want to take it out of the tank. That is when you will have a problem with them.

they fight for territory via chemicle warfare, any sensitive corals put to close directly down stream can suffer or die. if you have a lot of toadstools running carbon to remove these is a good Idea. cyutting them in tank can cause an excess release of these and cause problems. its not a huge worry (having them in the tank) just be cautious in your place ment of other corals in relation. definatly do not put a different type of toadstool thats smaller down stream from it. the toxins hitting the littler one will damage it and cause it to release more toxins in retaliation. over all people seldom see direct results of the chemicle warfare, usually one ends up growing way slower than the other.....
