I have used alot of different frag plugs in all kind of materials the last 20 years but I cant find a solution for this one and only problem.

Some frag plugs need nothing to break others are cut well with wire cutters or bone cutters.

But this frag plugs and discs from my supplier are made out of magnesium and they are hard as **** I've tried all my equipment and having a real hard time to split larger colonies.

Not even Gryphon bandsaw get the work done.

I realized this to late so now I have a couple of 1000 frags/colonies starting to overgrow the system and no way to cut them down.

So what to do? Sell the corals in larger pieces or is there a solution to this problem?
