You can cut it pretty well anywhere but I liked the ring cut. Cut a circle around the flat portion and its looks like a big ring. It then can be cut into as many pieces as you wish. I have done this all the way to the main stem piece.

Cuts like that need to be done outside the tank. I used a wet towel to sit the coral on or better yet, a decent sized container, with some water in it. And use a good sharp blade.

I have done leathers inside my tank but not large cuts. They do "leak" a fair bit.
