Aquarium Boutique
Stopped by and spoke with Yuki (John) and found out April 3rd was his 1 year anniversary having the store open. If you have never been he's off Garland Rd. by White Rock Lake the store is still young and coming around nicely he carries Freshwater & Saltwater so if your ever in the area stop by and tell him congrats on his 1 yr mark. |

Wow. I knew that they shut down the Pet Boutique a while back. I thought that place was long gone. Good to know.

I heard the old owner is still involved, but is now just assisting.

It's no longer Pet Boutique. Boyce, the former owner of Pet Boutique, helped John set up the store when he took over part of the shop and it's now renamed Aquarium Boutique.
He's featured in a newspaper article from a few months ago. http://www.whiterocklakeweekly.com/b...o+their+whimsy And his homepage for store hours and info: http://theaquariumboutique.com/Welcome.html Anyone that has never met Yuki will find that he's a pretty cool guy and very knowledgeable.

I stopped by Aquarium Boutique after our meeting today and hung out around the store chatting with Yuki. FYI he's having a Party at his store on April 28th from 1-5 pm. He'll be serving food and drinks for everyone that attends. For anyone that doesn't know John, he's a cool guy and easy to get along with. I hope he has many more years of success.
