I like to use fragging as an opportunity to guide the corals growth. For example, if I notice a coral(s) is growing toward another coral and will be a problem in the future, that's where I frag. Like you mentioned, you may want to frag the area that is going to be shaded, or maybe even the part...

High flow, intense lights, stable parameters...especially magnesium which is often overlooked.

I like to take them off the plug and find a spot too. Also, if you find a spot that you like a lot, but the coral won't fit well you could always use a little aquarium safe epoxy to help hold it in place.

Softies are always fun, but as others have said, make sure you keep an eye on them or you may regret it one day when you have a xenia only tank. You can find some LPS for pretty cheap sometimes...frogspawn, torch corals, etc. They will provide some nice movement and are not invasive.

Crazy! Who would have thought a zoa could land you in the ER or ICU?
