System looks great! I find it really hard to get pics that accurately reproduce what I see with my eyes. I’ve found that using an orange gel filter helps to offset the blues. I also use an iOS app called aquarium cam. It allows you to adjust the colors live and try to get an accurate pic...
You absolutely should dip, but in all fairness your chances of adding corals to the tank and not getting bristleworms or sponges is close to impossible.
I’ll never be shy about talking reefs ;). I have two Ap700 in a 61” aquatic life T5 hybrid fixture on my display, a frag tank with an Ap700 on it, and a small frag tank with an a360we on it. i have a spare ap700 which is going to end up on another frag tank soon. The display is 160g. Total...
I also like RSCP. The higher alk and cal reduces the amount I have to dose. Also, my reef seems to run at it's best when I'm using it. The two times I had to run out and pick up IO, I noticed a difference.

I don’t know much about the pumps you guys are mentioning, but after a disappointing result from using a DC pump, I read a lot of people on the forums upset about the flow rates they get for them. Just trashed a brand new maxspect pump that couldn’t top 20% of the advertised flow rate. I went...
Lots of cool small fish to choose from. I think I’d like fire fish and chromis, but I’ve never stocked a 25 gallon. I’m sure someone with some experience there will offer you some advice. Good luck!
