Basically I have shown the guys 3 basic ways to frag mushies and they are by incision, total cutting and pressure splitting.
The pos and cons of all three methods are highlighted below:
Total Cutting
Pros
Fast healing rate
You get more frags from a single polyp
Cons
Low success rate
Incision
Pros
Higher success rate than cutting
Easier to administer
Cons
Slower healing time
Pressure splitting
Pros
Highest success rate
Easy to administer
Cons
Longest healing time
You get very fre frags from this
So, I'm going to start with total cutting. For this method, you totally cut off the disk in a single snip and leave the stalk behind to grow into a new polyp.
After that, you cut the disk into pizza slices and the number of slices depends on the size of the specimen you are cutting
The cuttings are then placed in a frag box which is supposed to be filled with coral chips so that the frags can attach but I couldn't get my hands on them on that day.
