Getting Back Into The Hobby -- 29g Build

[petere1989]

hi guys, i've been out of the hobby about 6 months after selling my 90 gallon reef tank, and i really only sold it because i got offered a lot of money for it, close to what i paid for everything new, so i jumped on it. I replaced it with a 55 gallon freshwater tank, which is fun but its not filling the void. I am going to be doing a Bio cube 29 gallon build this time around. My question is, is the light that comes with this:

sufficient enough for sps coral? I am doing only sps and not sure on the lighting. i wouldn't think it would be enough but some insight and maybe some ideas would be awesome. thanks! I cannot wait to get a tank going again!

I personally would be nevous about the lighting. JBJ offers a similar aquarium with some great LED's (the advanced):

Obviously that's more than twice as expensive, but IME lights are never something you want _just_ enough.

awesome, thanks! the advanced one looks great. I was trying to avoid buying a tank and then needing to replace the lights, just get it all in one swoop. That'll do it.
