I have a medium piece of Kenya tree coral and i want to start fragging it so I can spread it out in the 55 I'm going to convert it to. Problem is idk how to frag this coral at all how should I go about doing this??? Please help
 
Cut pieces off with a pair of scissors and put them where you want them. frankly, This coral will be everywhere eventually,so no need to frag it. If it's under decent flow, it will lose the tops of it's branches and they will float to new spots.
 
Yeah when I first introduced it to the tank it split off about 6 small frags and they're all starting to get bigger but I need some slightly bigger ones as I'm starting a 90gal here soon and want some to be in there too
 
depending on the size of the kenya all you need to do is snip off a piece the size you want than take a small rock place it on the rock wrap a rubber band around it it will attach pretty fast
 
Alright sweet thanks guys there are a few branches that are getting kind of close to a nem I have sitting fairly close to it so I'm going to snip those and place them
 
This coral will be every where just like mr_x sad I have it in my 30 gallon and left to its own it will take over the tank . 1/4 of my tank had it and I will not put it in my 75 I just got up and running

as long as he keeps it trimmed back it will be ok , just like any thing if its not kept trimmed it grows and spreads
 
Well I was gonna frag it and let it grow so I can take it to local fish stores around my town and sell it
