The exciting thing about LEDs is the ability to control them electronically, to simulate the movement of the sun/moon from east to west over your tank. I read once about a US aquarium lighting company working with a German company to develop a fully programmable LED aquarium lighting system. I haven't heard much lately about their progress, but they did estimate that it would cost about $800 initially, however you would see substantial savings in electricity usage and bulb replacement costs over the life of the unit.
