Coralife Biocube 29 LED conversion kit

Anyone have any experience with the LED conversion kits for the Biocube 29? I am a relative beginner in the world of reef tanks and have heard that the LED are much better than the current fluorescents for coral health and growth. Is it worth the conversion? Multi spectrum vs blue/white? I have LPS corals, fish and a bubble anemone at this time with plans on adding more. Thanks

I don't know if you're looking at a specific conversion kit, but I highly recommend switching to LEDs. IMO you will have much better results and you'll be able to keep SPS also as long as other various things are in check also of course. I have a reefbreeders photon 32 on my 144 gallon tank and if I ever decide to keep coral in my 29 biocube then I will get a different light then the flourescent lights they come with. I'm not too sure how much of a difference just blue and white or full spectrum makes though. Hope this helps,
Andrew

Thanks Andrew for your response. I have narrowed my search to Steve's LEDs conversion kit, now it just comes down to color combination. What I've read definitely points to full spectrum, now I have to decide if I want more of a natural look or more iridescence. Choices!
