I have a colony of zoas they are in a frag plug and they are growing around it and out into the sand bed so I want to frag what ever is around, the reason I dont let them grom is because I havent found a rock where I want them to settle

Theres a pic if more are need it let me know

I just tear them apart, and dip them on revive. It has work for me although i do caution to wear safety glasses you do not want what they squirt into your eyes

When you are fragging zoas be very careful to wear eye protection and latex cloves.  Zoas and Play's are very toxic.  I use a sharp razor blade or exacto knife and an old tweezers.  Cut the zoas off the rock and glue them to a frag plug/rubble or whatever you want to glue them to.  I use the gorilla super glue, that seems to work best for me.  Should you have any questions, feel free to give me a call or pm.
