    I just picked up a nice wellso. It's expanding substantially larger in my DT than it did in the lfs. Is it ok to press against the glass? My concern is in the constant disruptions when I clean the glass. Will it be ok with getting moved a little each time I clean the glass or will this stress it out?

    IME best not to move anything in your tank if at all possible
    and if you ever do move them, dont move corals whilst they are expanded and dont move them with your bare hands, unless you can get the rock the coral is attached to plastic tongs are a better option IME

    if you can relocate the coral, re aquascape some rock work, in order that it has room to expand without touching the glass, that would be a better option IMO
