Can plating chalices be fragged with bone cutters like montipora?

Do they need to be handled delicately with a saw or can they just be chunked off like montipora?

I’d like to trim this guy back

Either or honestly. They’re like monti in the sense they take off once they grow and the skeleton is just as brittle if not worse.

Yup had chalices in the past band saw less damaging to the flesh it is an lps after all. Iodine dip after fragging. I used bone cutters on my first one almost lost the whole thing.
