LED color coverage

Ok, so I am getting a DYI LED set up for my 24 gallon nano tank...here are the specs...

14 RB 3 watt cree LEDs
5 NW 3 watt LEDs
5 CW 3 watt LEDs

I am thinking of getting a separate driver for 2 UV 3 watt LEDs. Any thoughts on if this is needed for color spectrum? I will already have the NW for a red spectrum coverage, and I know its plenty of light for a small tank. But I have read that the UV gives the full coverage for corals. Should I bother or not. Any advice would help.
Thanks,
Bill
