I've been coming to worldwide since 1985, and it has slowly evolved from being the best fish store around to one of the crappiest. Although, most of the employees are polite and helpful, there is only so much you can do when your store has nothing. The shelves are empty, the tanks are empty, and (surprise, surprise) the isles are empty. It's upsetting to see one of Upper Darby's landmarks become so bad. Management has told me they can't get any inventory or supplies in because the economy is down, yet they have the money to put in a useless indoor pond. Here's a tip for the management, if you want to make some money... how about starting with having something to sell? This store is actually trying to sell cracked fish tanks! The incompetence here is mind boggling.
For those of you looking for a decent fish store, visit Aquarium Center, Value Pet, The Hidden Reef, East Coast Aquatics, The Fish Factory or Captain Nemo's. There is no shortage of quality fish stores in the area. Worldwide Aquarium is DEFINITELY not one of them.
