Ken, I know that there is a how-to online that I had a while ago.

Depends on what the zoa is on. Basically you want to cut the mat around the polyps and try to carefully get them off of the substrate that it is on. I had fragged a larger piece a while go that was on a rock, I used an old chisle and actually scraped off a very thin layer of the rock so a large piece of the mat came off. Then I used an Exacto knife and cut the polyps off and then glued them to a disk.

More importantly than how to do it is what you need to do to protect yourself when fragging zoas...you will need gloves and goggles to cover your eyes.

The toxins that some zoas contain are one of the most deadly powerful toxins on Earth.

+1 Always use Protection.

I have fragged zoas b4 without gloves and I did feel like crap afterwards I'm usually a throw caution to the wind kinda guy never believed the hype but I won't frag z p with out gloves now!

Gloves and eye protection. Use the rubber dish washing kind. I used an exactly knife and it worked really well but I lost a few zoas in the process.
There are some great tutorials online.

Well i can get you gloves and splatter visors like they use in surgery, i work in a hospital bro just let me know, also i can bring you a bucket, if you cut the bucket in half it gives you room to spread out unlike using a tupper wear bowl or small container, i can cut it for you as well , just holla at ya boy kid.

Would latex gloves work or are they too thin?

They are ok, but you might want to wear 2 pair as they split so easily.
Reading glasses can be used instead of a visor as they may also help enlarge what you are looking at when fragging.

..and as silly as it may sound...keep your mouth closed when making the cuts!
