Led Light Can I use LED light technology to light my fish tank?
I have seen LED lights in retail stores that give lots of light and use very little power.My tank is planted with real plants and I wonder if those LED lights cover the whole light spectrum needed for the plants to thrive.
I would not use LEDs for a planted tank. The light emitted is usually not beneficial for optimum plant growth. I ran across a website online that specializes in all types of aquarium lights, http://www.aquariumlightsupply.com
They are currently having a big sale.

LED Lighting
LED lighting is fast becoming standard in homes and business everywhere. LED lighting and light emitting diodes, are a smarter, more efficient way to light a room. Rather than using fragile filament power that burns out easily, LED lighting utilizes the movement of electrons for power and light. Built so that a great number of photons are released outward, the light from a diode is focused through the end of a plastic bulb which produces a bright light.
Because the power source or diodes are housed in plastic bulbs, LED lighting tends to be more easily protected than the older standard of fragile bulbs. LED lighting uses only about a third of the electricity needed to supply energy to traditional bulbs giving it longer life and providing almost 60,000 hours of light. Compared with only about 1,000 hours of light in incandescent lighting, this makes for a huge advantage.
LED lighting tends to mimic natural, outdoor light. This proves invaluable for the consumer and in case studies has been related to more alertness. LED lighting is also a mainstay for those suffering from SAD, a depression caused by lack of natural light in the winter months.
The greener way to go, LED lighting is not only cost effective, it uses less energy. LED bulbs stay relatively cool since they only utilize the diodes for light rather than relying on electricity that heats incandescent bulbs, as the filament must be warmed to produce light. Because the electricity used in LED lighting is being directly used for light this cuts down on energy demands considerably.
