Default Re: hard corals

There are some types of hard corals (like a bubble coral) that you need to be careful not to cut all the way through soft tissue areas, but with favias, you don't need to worry about not cutting through the tissue since they have many small tissue areas instead of one large tissue. Just use a dremel and cut the coral to whatever size you want.
