Default Red montipora capricornus

Hey everyone i just picked up a frag of a red montipora capricornus ......i was planning on placing so it would grow of the side of a rock high up in my tank. To me that would look really cool haing it grown on a ledge, but i was wonder how i could get it do that? like glueing it to a main rock in the tank or just placing where i wanted it to attach ......... any suggestions?

HEy everyone just thought i would ask since people are checking out this thread

anyone one know if when fragging mushrooms and xenia ( spelling) if they are sticking to the rubble rock could i glue them to a piece of rubble rock. People have said no to this in other threads i saw. people say they are too slimmy, but i was thinking of trying on a mushroom and seeing how it works.......is this good or bad idea?
