IMO if you just added the coral yesterday it most likely shouldn't be at the top of the tank. Corals should normally be added lower in the tank and slowly moved higher so that the change in lighting does cause them to bleach. Unless you have very low powered lighting. Also, while I will still try to avoid leaving corals out of water, the few minutes it takes to remove and add water to the tank generally will not harm the corals.
