For as terrible as it sounds, I use a HACKSAW! Yes you lose a few polyps, but it works better then anything else I have tried.

Yeah I think a hacksaw or a dremel with a cutting wheel would be the best. Just try to cut around the coralites instead of straight through them.

I try and cut in between the polyps as best I can, but you know these things refuse to grow in nice straight rows like corn does.

LOL!
My galaxea was TOUGH! I fragged it several times with the hacksaw, the thing that did it in was a FISH! My Auriga Butterfly made lunch out of it. |
