Frogspawn coral placement/position...

Hi everyone!

I have a frogspawn that was "secured" on my live rock with some glue. Today I found the coral lying horizontal. No damage. It had actually its tentacles out.
I am actually glad the glue failed because I wanted to move the coral.

I have a hole in one of my live rock that would fir perfectly the frogspawn, only problem is that the coral would be in a horizontal position and not upright.
Do you think that would be ok? Or does the coral need to be upright?
 
When mounted in the horizontal position the heads on the bottom of the coral will shrivel and eventually die from a lack of light since they will be shielded from light by the coral above. Eventually the entire coral will grow in a 90 degree angle up towards the light. If your coral only has one or two heads now I don't see this as an issue.
