Default Thoughts on this line

Villain is 30/20/4 and loves to raise in the blinds. Obv I could raise this in SB but felt a limp re-raise would be a nice change and if he checks I'm well disguised. Thoughts?

As played, too aggressive on the flop? Should I be reraising to $2.50 instead?

Seems okay to me. He thought you were bluffing and decided to raise you.

3betting's not bad here but I'd check-raise instead. His aggro is high and there's a good chance he's going to take a stab.

I also raise PF.

Looks standard to me. I'd raise preflop personally.. suppose you were looking for a check raise pf? But beyond that post flop looks great. In my short experience online (about 4 months of play). I've recognized the min reraise to yell extreme strength.. I would have taken that to mean I should definitely pop it really good which is what you did.
