Hey guys I really want to cut my brain coral in haft. And to see if I can do it in peace. I never done brain before. I done mushroom and easy corals. But a brain never. I know that you are suppose to cut the mouth in haft. Should I do it? Or just let it be? I have 10 brain corals from red metallic to regular green. I have a saw and a drummel. NOT sure which one is best to use. If you done this before please post a picture. Thanks.

Here is my tank.

You could cut it like a pizza as long as you have some as the mouth. Though i would start a half cut. Ive done this with other coral with no problem's.
