Well typically in bubbleponics you do have a drip system.. i believe without it then its considered DWC.... as for direct advice on clones i dont know as i havent messed with that yet.. but i belive with teh drip.. (which I do have) it would work perfectly for it.

That is a point of great debate. Bubbleponics is a trademarked proprietary term and not really a system. I guess any hydro system that uses bubbles could be called bubbleponics (well, if it weren't trademarked they could). The Stealth Hydro Bubbleponics relies on a water pump and feeder tubes to water seedings. A simple passive DWC system relies instead on the breaking bubbles and the mist they create in the space between the water and the netpot to do the same. And it does it well. I used no feeder tubes and no top watering and had roots in the water on the sixth day. Once the roots are in the water it's all DWC.
