I have a green goniopora coral and a flowerpot coral on my sandbed. My leopard wrasse and I think my tomatoe clown keeps flipping them and now they are dieing off. When I placed them higher they started to bleach. That is why they are lower now. Any ideas as to why they keep doing this.
Here is a video of my tank, please let me know if I should try placing the 2 corals somewhere else. Thanks guys

Yep, it happens. Try mounting them to a small rock, and mount that small rock to another larger rock down at the base. The fish will give up, and the corals can stay at the bottom.
 
You can also place them in a clear tupperware that is slightly larger with no lid. The walls of the tupperware keep them from being able to grab the sides and flipping them. Fish gonna do what fish do... unfortunately either making them to heavy or unaccessable are the only things you can do. Happy reefing! :)
