Going to Orlando worth stopping a world wide corals or any were else?

The display tanks are awesome. Staff is great and the corals are really cool. It's hard to walk out of there without a load of new stuff.

Went there yesterday. Outstanding place. Picked up some zoas I have been looking for. Be careful, it can be hazardous to your wallet.

They are very proud of their stuff. I can say that much.

They have some amazing things in their displays. It's cool to see their stuff but they do have pricey items. I did think some stuff at the expo were reasonably priced

Since I moved here I figured I had to go. Other than what was in the display tanks, not for sale, I wasn't that impressed. Maybe it's a matter of timing and I was there at a down time, but I probably won't bother to go back and I live here.

Any other shops near by?

I have only been to a couple of LFS here, but this one is my favorite by far!

It's not nearby, but if you are going to the east coast of Florida [Jacksonville, FL] I highly recommend Bioreef. It is easily found if you use a GPS because it is located in a Industrial Park area off the main street. I recommend you stop there on your way back home because I'm sure you will come home with some new family members for your aquarium.

I was there two summers ago when I was in the Jacksonville area. I mentioned that I was then an ARC member and they gave me a 10% discount. No pressure to buy anything and be ready to spend some time in Bioreef. Very knowledgeable staff and very helpful. They packed my stuff for the trip back to Georgia.

I believe you will enjoy a visit to Bioreef. Bioreef is on my list of places to stop if I ever get to Jacksonville, FL again. I will make sure that I'm returning home before I stop, so that I can bring a few new members home with me.

Time to eat my words! Yesterday, I bought a 40B from a guy that lives near Disney and he wanted to meet at World Wide Corals. Wow! What a difference from the first time I went. The display was still awesome as before but now the tanks were loaded with great corals. I guess it is all in the timing.
