So I think I was wrong by the way, opening should be about a month from now give or take. I think a lot of it at this point is related to the strict QT policies they are using over there (which are awesome by the way) so figure first week of March before the doors open for a soft launch and a big grand opening towards the end of the month. Don't quote me on it, but I would wager that's about right.

I'm as excited as most of you for this shop to open but I give them all the credit in the world for taking their time and doing it right. When ATR re-opened up in Scottsdale it was so half done it was hard to walk around in there and not wonder what the heck was going on.

I've had the pleasure of learning about a few of their plans and I promise you we are really talking about a store that is going to blow away everyone else in town. I think we're talking about the new gold standard when it comes to a LFS in the PHX metro.
Remind me that I need to check out the tank in person sometime. I'm at ASU every day of the week for grad school, and on the weekend it'd be nice to take a fish tank break
