KGB, Seaclone is a hang on back skimmer made by Aqarium Systems. Considering they make good quality products such as Maxijets and Instant Ocean, it surprises me that they don't make good skimmers.

I recommend an AquaC Remora w/ Maxijet upgrade if you want a hang on back style of skimmer.

2x55W PC lighting is minimum but don't expect to be able to keep Acropora. I find that my bulbs get dim every 6 months when used 16 hours/day. I've only started keeping Acros alive consistently when I added another 96W PC to my 110W lighting system. Even then, not all acros maintained their color. However, I haven't lost any Acro frags nor colonies since adding the extra light. A few surprised me and actually colored up under the PC lights when they were previously under MH.
