Brain coral placement

I've had it for 4 months now and it's doing well. It's on the substrate like how most people keep them. I'm planning to move it to a different cycled tank and was considering to place it on live rock. It'll glue it so it doesn't fall and it'll be on an angle also. It that ok? Would being tilted affect how it grows? The bottom of it is very flat since it's been growing on the substrate. But if it's tilted and not all parts of the edge will in contact with something, I'm wondering how it will grow? Thanks.

What kind of brain coral?

Should be OK IMO, although I wouldn't tilt it anymore than say 30 degrees or so. Even though it's glued down you definitely don't want it to take a tumble down the reef slope.

I have placed brains on live rock and in the sand and never had a problem.
Once settled, seem to inflate same.
