When first learning about reef tanks I was informed by a number of sources that you should never expose corals to air as it will kill them. Yet as I have been exploring coral propogation I've noticed numerious photo's that appear to have corals hard & soft out of the water primarily for gluing.

Can someone point me to the appropriate rules about removing corals from their marine enviroment.
