Cryptic zones

[Proteus]

What do you have for a flow rate in your crypt

I tried to run cheato but found it just fell apart (died). Also have semi cryptic zone which is full of pods and worms.

I also run a cryptic zone vs. refugium.

Very high flow rate running through my sump. It consists of some live rock rubble suspended with some eggcrate.

I have live rock in my sump as a cryptic zone as well, I guess.. It is very cryptic because I have no clue what it's for.

I imagine that under the flow under eggcrate would be alot slower flow rate and top would have higher flow?

Is it loaded with sponge and fan worms

Its not a LOT slower, but for sure it is slower then the top. Lots of fan worms and tonnes of sponges.
