Question Nano Tank Consideration

I am considering purchasing Oceanic's BioCube, which is their nano lineup. They offer 3 sizes, 8G, 14G, and 29G. I am considering the 14, because the 29 doesnt have enough watts per gallon with the 50/50 coralife's. Does anybody have any experience with this line-up, or should i invest a few hundred in another brand that has had better results. I have seen one in person, and they are very aesthetically pleasing, everything built in with strong lighting and rounded glass corners. I was just wondering if anybody else owns them and really like them. Any other nano setups owned mentioned would be much appreciated.

If lighting is your main concern on these tanks, they do offer modifications for the hoods on nano tanks or even a viper MH might be an option. Check out http://nanocustoms.com/ they may offer some ideas for you.
