    I guess it just seemed like it took several tries to find the "sweet spot" for this coral. That is a scary process sometimes, you wonder if you are acting too quickly, but trying to be sensitive to the animal's needs at the same time. I suppose "challenging' would be a better term, but I don't think it was in the selections.
