Kind of a strange question. I have a frag of about 8 polyps that are growing on a pice of LR that is vertical. In other words they are on the front growing down / up a cliff. If I flip this small piece of LR over onto its "back" so that the piece is more horizontal the polyps will be laying sideways but still on top of the LR. Will the polyps re-adjust the way that they are growing and point their heads towards the light? I am attaching a pic but it is kind of hard to see what I am talking about. The reason is I think that they would have an easier time spreading on a horizontal piece versus a vertical piece.

They will readjust and grow towards where they are comfortable.

Pufferpunk I am not good with names. They have a bright but dark orange skirt (If that makes sense) like a hershey chocolate brown outer, and gold mouth with gold specs. They were my 1st coral over 2 years ago. I have them in a few different places growing in my tank.
