At the risk of hijacking this thread even further, wanted to ask you the best way to frag a Sun Coral. Do you just use a cutter snip, or a scalpel or what? Not sure how hard the skeleton is, and don't want to kill it or make a mess.

i then use a flat top screwdriver and place it into the grove i cut, i then twist the flattop leaving me with 2 halves, if i need to make multiple frags then i make a grid of lines with my grinder then use the screwdriver to break multiple pieces. the idea of cutting from the bottom to the top is to not damage the flesh with the hot blade so basically like scoring a line but its deep and breaking it. any attached flesh can be cut cleanly with a new razorblade. i take the same approach with zoos as well

of course they will....they are not photosynthetic so will grab as much of a meal as they can , but be carefull you can overfeed which can lead to other huge problems including death of the coral
