are seaclone skimmers worthlelss

[marinerules]

or just not like the 500 dollar ones

im wanting to set up a 55 gallon tnak with nothing but pulsing xenia and some cleaner shrimp and maybe one clownfish.

[marinerules]

also i have the standard 55 gallon tank

its 4 foot long , something like 18 inches tall and im wanting to use this skimmer as a hang on skimmer


is the 150 to LONG to use as a hang on skimmer in my tank ,

the 100 might be to long

i know tha the 150 is 25 inches high , which is taller than a 55 gallon tank , but im sure the skimmer will stick above the 55 some


will a 150 work on a 55 like mine ?

[Lev F.]

I don't recommend Seaclone(clown) Seaclone does not work very well, doesn't take much skimmate and tends to overflow.

[marinerules]

what about prizm ,

im looking for a hang on skimmer for my 55 to use as the purposes as I posted , but im not wanting to spend over $150

i have a prizm on a 55 and i need something else... try to find a remoro...
for the money... you can find something better.

[Saltz Creep]

Spend $13 over your budget and get a Remora.

BTW, I don't think SeaClones are worthless. The collection cups are worth saving from the trashcan. ;)

or go under budget and get a used remora or a used bak-pak and modify it

[marinerules]

ive heard remoras are good skimmers but the ones i always seen people talking abotu was the 300 to 400 dollar ones

Those are probably the HOT from Deltec or something. I've always heard good things about Remoras as well. You can also look into a Coralife Super Skimmer, but the Remora may be better.
