Nah prices were pretty fair when you shop there...cheaper than their online site. Can't remember the ORA stuff but I picked up a nice H. magnifica anemone there for less than half of what Orlando stores charge. There were $20 acros and zoas. It is worth the trip just to see the place but I would call first if you are looking for something specific. Hit up FAOIS too if you are going there.

I have picked up several ORA corals from there including Pearlberry, Red Planet, BOP, and Bellina. These corals were all mini-colonies not frags. The price is better than online and any LFS I have visited in Orlando or Tampa. The quality of coloration is sick(radium 20k)... I have also managed to stumble into Pink Lemonade for $40 from Emsters tank. I agree with MrHarvard, both stores are most excellent, I go to both of them every other week. Livestock mostly from the corall though... All in all, both stores are a must visit in Tampa!
Allthough not listed yet I believe ORA will donate frags to t he SRC frag auction.

I live close to the coral corrall and FAOIS and they are the only local stores I will go to. They both have their perks. Since you asked about the ORA prices in store the big names are $60. oregon tort, red planet, hawkins I think and pearlberry. There are more and a good selection in stock. Some of the corals that have been available for a while from ora are less money. To me it seems both stores are equal in price unless FAOIS has changed their prices. On the website it states spend $300 and the shipping is free. Since shipping is expensive you have to inflate prices to keep some profit. Not from their mouth just what I am thinking. The store is definitely a site to see anyway so go in and be pleasantly surprised. Both stores in my opinion.
MAy see you there I spend way to much time at both places.

I went yesterday I'd I have to give both stores 2 thumbs up! If I had three I would give coral corral 3 thumbs up. Very large "frags" for fair prices. Their frags are huge! I have kind of gotten used to the .5 to 1 inch frags in town so I was shocked when I saw the size of these frags there. I got a roscoe's Mini colony for $40 bucks and a nice little frag of white zoas for 20 bucks. I was very impressed and I will be back when I'm in tampa again.
