A LFS Paradise Reef i shop at has just opened a new store on the North East corner of lockwood ridge road and university.
They are offering a 10 to 15% over cost one all items in store. They have all the drygoods and tanks running. The will be full function next week.
There north Bradenton store is closed for revamp.

They will barter and trade or give store credit for corals.

The owner is very nice and I'm going to talk to him about setting up an amazing coral reef display.

Well hope you check them out if you live in the area.

I do not work for them just shop there.

Please redirect this thread if it goes somewhere else.

I wish I had something like that near me. Closest reef shop is 100 miles away here in Montana. Have to get most everything online.

I used to live in Sarasota/ Venice, you should check out Eco Reef in venice. Nicest displays around. And good prices.

I live 1/2 mile from there. I saw the van in the parking lot, and I didn't know if they were setting up an office tank or what. Isn't this the same company that has a large store up in Bradenton behind the Hooter's restaurant?

I liked the husband and wife that owned Marine Dreams, I guess they split and the store went downhill with the economy. I go to Paradise on a frequent basis, and the people are very nice, but I never seem to buy my corals from them. IMO, they need to do something with the lights to show off the corals better.

Ya I believe that they split. Anyways I did get some awesome old school zoos from them at a price I could not pass up. I'm going to talk with the owner and see if I can talk him into a showcase tank with some serious color pop.
