    should i put the cryptic zone in between the DSB with some eggcrate or what would you recommend? Also you said to use a baffle...does my picture look good? i was confused on the baffle to the left of my fuge. Can i just have the water roll over the top of my one baffle or do I need a bubble catcher after the baffle like I do to the right of the skimmer section? Man thanks again for all the help your OG.

    weird when i click manage attachments nothing happens. maybe you dont need a pic...
    basically do i need a bubble catcher after my baffle from the fuge to the return? or is a bubble catcher unnecessary also Id rather not because id like the extra space for more fuge room.

    I think your plans for a cryptic zone should be fine.

    No need for a bubble trap from the refuge to the return. It is only used from the skimmer side to return. You want to place the first and last baffle so they are connected to the bottom the middle one should be 1" to 1.5" above the bottom. The baffles should be 1" to 1.5" apart.
