Hi All,

Just wanted to quickly introduce myself. I'm back into the hobby after a decade hiatus! I had a FOWLR tank way back but I'm looking to really up my game this time

I've got a 7 week old JBJ 30G setup with a few frags and two PJ Cardinals (decent CUC as well) that I plan on running until I'm fully ramped up knowledge-wise to build a larger setup in the basement (looking at a mininum of 200G+).

I'm also a big car guy (having owned everything from old Eagle Talon TSI's to my most recent street killer, a 2009 GTR), currently looking to play with a new 2013 Jeep Wrangler for a change. Sports, hiking, and anything outside also keeps me and the family in check.

So here's a quick shot of the tank (crappy iPhone pic) and I'll close with saying that I'm looking forward to being active here and in person. Going to try and make the next fragging event in Feb!

Edit: Forgot to mention I'm usually in the office on Monday's and Friday's near Perimeter. I'd love to meet up with some of you for lunch if you're interested. Just shoot me a PM.

-Todd

HAHA - there's actually a story to the screen name. Years ago my wife and I were visiting Callaway Gardens and went to a local gas station. On the counter inside was a "Wanted" sign with a guys name on it. His crime? "Running a Flim Flam" LOL

I asked the guy/owner (older gentleman and very nice) to tell me exactly what the guy did to have a wanted poster made up. His reply? "You know, he was flim flamming!!!"

Ever since the wife and I accuse each other of flim flam for all sorts of stuff :shout:

Update:

Took the PJ Cardinals out and put an Occelaris Clown and a Black Occelaris Clown along with a Yellow Assessor in the tank yesterday. The Assessor is hiding out right now but the other two are doing great.

Where'd you find the assessor?

Optimum Aquarium here in Kennesaw.

He's doing great BTW, came out of hiding after two days and is very active. Very good with his tankmates as well.
