No, probably not. Not in one day!
Most likely it's just sad cuz it fit moved. It will be better in a day or two.
Thank you is this common moving corals makes them sad? It did have a very nice spot until my snail knocked it over! So I had to epoxy it down!

It is for leathers in my experience.
Good luck with the epoxy, probably won't work.
Toothpick through the stalk and elastic bands to a rock work better. Just take out the bands/toothpick after it's attached.

Ah yes it is why doesn’t it work because they’re too heavy? I’ll try that but it is on a frag plug!

I had a perfect hole on my scape that my frag plug was able to fit on my personal tank. Toadstool.

My toadstool would always get upset whenever I moved it, but it would bounce back quickly!

Yeah, my toadstool pouted for at least a month when I moved it! Once a coral is happy with its location, they really, really do not like change! at least in my very little experience.
