New Aspiring Reefer to the Tampa Bay Area

[ElussssvReefSD]

Hey y'all, new to the area and looking to get my hands wet (so to speak) in the local community. Particularly looking for good LFS in the area as well as advice on my upcoming build:

I’m new to the reef community, switching from cichlids.. I have really enjoyed my dealings with the folks at Marine warehouse aquarium, they have been super nice and helpful.. also top shelf aquatics is only about an hour away in winter park and they are super premium for frags

Try:

The Coral Corral in Oldsmar
Big Fish Aquatics in Trinity
Marine Warehouse in Tampa

Willing to drive a bit:
Living Reef Orlando
World Wide Corals Orlando

Places I have hear about but not been too:
Coral Bargain Wear house Lakeland
Reef Dreamz St. Pete

World Wide Corals Orlando

Definitely of the best places to visit with an amazing selection, but ridiculously overpriced. They sell a lot of regular livestock 2-3x what most LFS do. I wouldn't recommend if you're looking to buy, especially as a new reefer.
