Hey Travis, Ryan and I are picking up together tomorrow. If you can't find anything for shipping I can at least get it to SB for you. Ryan might be able to get it to SM but I don't want to commit him to anything. Just pm me here or on CCRK and i'll get it on my phone while we are driving down tomorrow.

Good meeting you Jason. Thanks again.
Just posting quick pic's, will update tank details later.
I did clean the reflector and replace the bulb that was well over a year old.
New 15K Reef Grow 400w.
Tank Info:
270 gallon with i think a 55 maybe 60 gallon sump filled halfway (some sand, a few pounds of live rock, Cheato and 5 Mangro) filter sock and big no name brand skimmer not sure what it’s rated at. Two 400 Watt MH powered by electronic Ballasts, with Lumenarc III style reflectors. Over 9000 GPH flow. Use instant ocean salt mix and conduct a 10% water change once a month if I’m not being lazy. I hand dose Kent Tech I once a week, and Kent Liquid Calcium daily. Top off RO/DI water by hand also. No fancy name brand equipment at all. All low end budget equipment.
SS frag is 26 inches below the light bulb.
Click (My 270) in my signature if you want to see more pictures of the tank.
New frag i picked up at AIM.
the picture doesn't do the color justice. broke a branch

didn't see the broken branch until after i put it in the tank, so it's 3 feet deep, and soon to be lost and gone forever. not going to try and fish it out.
i can see a big difference with my new bulb and the other side of the tank with the bulb over a year old, guess i'll have to slap a new one in on the other side tomorrow.
Break...
That's a fancy ruler. and good luck to you.
