Hell everyone! It is time for me to replace the lights in my coralife biocube 29. When researching what to buy to replace it I got very confused. I was looking at just getting replacement stock attinics. However, there are so many options I am confused on which to get someone please tell me what to get and give me a link to it. Thanks :D

PS

If you do believe it is absolutely necessary to upgrade the lights to keep easy corals like mushrooms and zoas and just other not so hard yet cool looking corals etc please say so and tell me what you would also recommend for that

Thanks in Advance!

Basically you can put 2 bulbs in with the stock fixture. The 36w daylight and the 36w actinic. These are pretty much going to be fine for softy corals you put in there. You could upgrade to an LED kit but most kits are DIY. You could take the top off and use a clamp on fixture as well if you are planning to upgrade.
