    Is a SeaClone 100 a good skimmer?

    SeaClone sucks. I have one in a box in my storage room, I'd give it to you if you lived in Richmond VA, but that wouldn't be very kind. Go with a Remora or Urchin--plug it in a forget about it--except to empty the waste chamber of course.

    Skimmer reccomendations

    A Ramora Pro is a good HOB skimmer for a 75 gal. or less and if you need, it can be adapter to a sump operation as well. CPR overflow is the way to go. I'vew never had problems with mine. Get the "Aqualifter" pump and filter to go with it.

    The yasha haze gobies run from the baster and anything else that enters the water. they're very shy. I'm setting up another tank and I'm thinking I could run a 1/4" tube to the area of their burrow and squirt food through the tube.

    Yello Cucumber 101.

    DT's is a live phytoplankton product that must be kept refrigerated. Your LFS should have it or can get it for you. It's not cheap but it's the best thing for most filter feeders. Check the expiration date on the bottle and make sure it's not close to expiring.
