Hey all,

Looking to upgrade my stock lighting to better LEDs. I have seen so many posts (some really out of date) on how to do this and I am not sure if there are any new options. 

One that has interested me is putting the Current Marine Orbit retrofit ( http://www.nano-reef.com/forums/topic/356379-current-marine-orbit-retrofit-into-biocube-29/" rel="nofollow - http://www.nano-reef.com/forums/topic/356379-current-marine-orbit-retrofit-into-biocube-29/ ) as the price is amazing. 

I have also seen the option of Steve's LEDs ( http://www.stevesleds.com/Biocube-29-LED-Turbo-Upgrade-System--Plug-and-Play_p_298.html" rel="nofollow - http://www.stevesleds.com/Biocube-29-LED-Turbo-Upgrade-System--Plug-and-Play_p_298.html ) but man thats the cost of another aquarium!

The other option I have seen is to remove the hood and mount a light above. With 3 kids I am not sure this is the best option.

I want to know if it is worth upgrading as I am not doing SPS. I am doing some fish, LPS and an anenome.
If anyone has any ideas, I would appreciate it!

Thanks!
