Just wanted to see what shops you guys recommend in and around Sarasota? I will be in town for a visit next week and would like to check a few out. I am into SPS so it would be nice to check out shops that have a good amount of hard corals. Last time I was in town Jan. I went to the shop on Clark and that was cool but not much in the way of SPS. Have any of you done a tour of ORA? Would it be worth the drive and how far is it? It looks to be about 3 hours. You guys have any meetings coming up maybe I could check that out also. Thanks for any info. I have a car so the stores don't need to be in town.

Hey Joe...As far as shops with alot of SPS there is not much local.
If you do not mind a drive to Tampa Fish and Other Ichty Stuff is a nice store. They are actually right outside Tampa in Oldsmar off of Hillsborough Avenue. Also Marine Warehouse in Tamp os a nice store but not sure on how much SPS they will have...Good Luck on your visit..
