    I have an 10" Toadstool Leather in a 120 gallon reef tank. I think it is getting too big and was wondering if anyone can give me advice on propagating this coral?

    There is 2 ways of doing it.

    1. Slice off piece's of it.

    2.Cut the whole top off and slice it into pieces. The stump will grow another head.

    Make sure you dose with iodine to make sure the cuts dont get infected.
