Stores in Scottsdale/Pheonix Area?

[barrierreefcf]

I'm visiting the Scottsdale/Pheonix area in a week or so. Anybody have any suggestions on what stores to look at?

I was down there, a couple years ago, in December. I stopped into 3 pretty nice places. Unfortunately, for the life of me, I can't remember any of their names. So, I'm of lil' help Cy. Sorry. Might try lurking here, only because it seems to get quite a bit of traffic. http://reefcentral.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=537 and here http://reefcentral.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1158507

Found one of the places I went http://www.aboutthereef.com/index.html

There are three major stores that I frequent.

The first is Aquarium Arts (Alma School and Baseline) (not open Sunday) 1810 W Baseline Rd # 1 Mesa, AZ 85202-9008 - (480) 820-8688

The second is About the Reef (they moved to Scottsdale) http://www.aboutthereef.com/contactus-phx1.html

The last is Arizona Sea Bottom (great for coral) http://www.azseabottom.com/

There is a new one opening where About the Reef used to be in Tempe...Reef Vibe or something along those lines. Will be great when it opens, but no new on an opening date.

Just saw the thread, hope it's not too late.

Thanks for trying. I missed your post. I thought Aquarium Arts had a great fish selection. Arizona Sea Bottom is closed Monday's which is when I went looking. I thought Aqua Touch had a nice layout and selection of gear. Their planted freshwater was amazing as well. About the Reef was last on my route and I was too tired to drive to them. Now I wish I would have.
