Wet saw. Fill the reservoir with seawater and rip the coral in pieces. I will have an article on this soon.

any idea when? i have a colony of 50+ that i would like to frag.. keeping up on the feeding is getting tedious.. those little buggers keep popping up.

Month after next, I think. You don't need the article to do it, though. I think anyone into coral propagation should own one.

SharkBait - in about six months. I should have the whole thing worked out by then.
