Can I frag my greentree? If so, how should I go about it?
I obtained a greentree specimen from a local reefer last weekend. He had it out of his tank for awhile on Saturday as he attempted to trade it at the LFS. They weren't giving him a good deal, so I bought it from him. It *would be* probably 6-7 inches tall, but it is slumped over at the main stalk. I have had it under proper lighting and in good flow for about 5 days now, and although all polyps open and extend on the branches, the main stalk is still badly bleached and bent in half. I am pretty sure at this point that the main stalk of this coral is not going to recover and once again support the full wait of the body. Therefore, I want to frag it and have several smaller specimens instead.
Can I just grab a razor and cut the branches off at the point they meet the body? Would simply supergluing them to smaller rocks do the trick?
Thanks for any and all advice.
