Though I wouldn't stoop to actually calling aiptasia an anemone.

Does not matter how *you* call aiptasia -
it IS 100% an sea anemone from a biological point of view...

g I can't say as I'd attempt slicing my
anemones in half, though I'd love to see it successfully done.

Go to this forum: http://forum.marinedepot.com/Forum13-1.aspx
and ask Anthony Calfo how he has done this himself...
He has sliced in pieces MANY, MANY corals in his life.
Believe me - even stony corals with a single polyps
can be cut with a tile saw and they will heal nicely and
here you will have two corals: anemones will do the same.
