Why do my clones get so yellow in my easy cloner I have the PH set at about 6 to 6.5 the cleaning solution and everything I get roots and all that but I’m wondering how I can stop the yellowing should I put a humidity dome over the top of the plants as well new to the easy cloner always do use sponges

Don't use a dome on an aero cloner, can lead to damping off.

T-5 with the 6000 kelvin rating are the bomb for seedlings and clones. Hope that's what you are working with. 
Add some EWC to your medium and if you got roots you will be fine!

Less light then. The bottom leaves should only be starting to yellow

Most if not all of my clones stay green. All I do is cut them skin them a bit and pop them in some clone gel and into seedling starter soil.
ewc is earth worm castings

Earth Worm Castings. Use them to make shakes for seedlings and clones. Put about 5 tablespoons in a 20 oz plastic bottle, fill with warm water, screw the lid on tight and shake the hell out of it to emulsify it. Seedlings love it.
Yea they are yellowing from the top

Why didn't you answer my questions about temperatures?
Make sure your res temp is higher than the ambient air temperature, and turn down or otherwise diffuse some of the light. Too much light and the plants will try to grow upwards instead of just roots. Warmer air than the water the roots are in exacerbate that. Foliage growth requires the plant to start using nutrients stored in the leaves, which is why you are seeing yellowing. You want to do all you can to promote root growth and limit or eliminate plant growth until the clones are potted into their final medium.
