Most people seem to associate the word seaclone with rubbish... I use a prizm which is ok, but not the best, and will be stretched on a 55

I had a seaclone. Dont get one. If your tight for money save up and buy a better skimmer for twenty bucks more. Trust me its worth it.

yeah the tank size recommended by the manufacturer for seaclones is two or three times the size of tank u should use it one--i'm using a 100 gallon model on a 29--seaclones work better on tanks a fraction of what they are recommended for
